----------------------
This is the SpliX printer driver for Samsung's laser printers using
the SPL2 (monochrome) and SPLc (color) printing languages.
As the patent on JBIG compression ends on April 4, 2012, right before
release of Ubuntu Precise, we build the full SpliX package now,
including the drivers for printers which require JBIG-compressed input
data. The needed part of the JBIG library jbigkit
(http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/jbigkit/), the libjbig85 static is
included in the debian/local/jbigkit-libjbig85/ directory.
The PPD files coming with this package (in ppd/) are generated with
"ppdc" from CUPS (http://www.cups.org/) based on the instructions in
the ppd/*.drv files. So ppd/*.drv are the source code files of the
PPDs. In addition, CUPS is free software, so all requirements for the
PPDs being in the main part of Ubuntu Linux are fulfilled.
The ready-made PPD files are there for convenience, to not require a
rebuild and to allow users of old CUPS versions without "ppdc" to use
SpliX
