The OS/2 port of CUPS has several required components. For simplicity, these are now separate downloads as each can be updated independently, and the previous all in one packages seemed to create confusion.

Requirements: CUPS (​http://www.cups.org) - OS/2 binary from ​http://download.smedley.info/cups-1.3.9-os2-20081226.zip Ghostscript (​http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/) - OS/2 binary from ​http://www.smedley.info/os2ports/index.php?page=ghostscript

Depending on your printer, you most likely need one of the following: Gutenprint (​http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/) - OS/2 binary from ​http://download.smedley.info/gutenprint-5.2.3-os2-20081226.zip - list of supported printers is at ​http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/p_Supported_Printers.php

Splix (​http://splix.ap2c.org/) - OS/2 port of v1.1.1 from ​http://download.smedley.info/splix-1.1.1-os2-20081226.zip - list of supported printers at ​http://splix.ap2c.org/ - all Samsung or Xerox printers

Installation notes: CUPS and Gutenprint/Splix need to be extracted into the root directory of the SAME drive - some Gutenprint/Splix files need to be installed into the CUPS directories.

Ghostscript also needs to be installed. The current CUPS build expects to find gsos2.exe in \gs\gs8.63\bin\gsos2.exe - ie on the same drive as CUPS. If this isn't the location of Ghostscript, you can edit \cups\lib\cups\filter\pstoraster and edit the PREFIX which points to the Ghostscript location. gs863os2.zip contains only the directory gs8.63 for compatability with GSView so take care when extracting.

Refer to the CUPS Howto for more details on how to use CUPS, particularly the stuff on setting up the port driver and importing PPD files into pscript.drv work in progress....
