Public bug reported: I built cups-filters 1.0.44 for Ubuntu 12.04 with pdftops being poppler's pdftops. I'm using it with Ricoh MP C3300 PosrtScript PPD [1], and looking at the code it should call pdftops with -level3 parameter. However, it looks like HP printer detection takes place and -level2 is always generated.
Here is strace output: [pid 7373] execve("/usr/bin/pdftops", ["pdftops", "-level2", "-noembtt", "-origpagesizes", "-nocenter", "-r", "300", "/tmp/p2.pdf", "-"], [/* 28 vars */] <unfinished ...> Shouldn't it generate level3 unless the printer is HP laserjet? 1. http://www.openprinting.org/ppd-o-matic.php?driver=Postscript- Ricoh&printer=Ricoh-Aficio_MP_C3300&show=1 ** Affects: cups-filters (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups-filters in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1294370 Title: PostScript level2 is always generated with pdftops renderer Status in “cups-filters” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I built cups-filters 1.0.44 for Ubuntu 12.04 with pdftops being poppler's pdftops.
