+The CUPS Driver Development Kit (DDK) provides a suite of standard drivers, a
+PPD file compiler, and other utilities that can be used to develop printer
+drivers for CUPS and other printing environments. CUPS provides a portable
+printing layer for UNIX(R)-based operating systems. The CUPS DDK provides
+the means for mass-producing PPD files and drivers/filters for CUPS-based
+printer drivers.
+
