I want to know what types of file I can print without having to convert
them to postscript. Can I say
lpr foo.dvi
foo.jpg
foo.gif
foo.doc
foo.bmp
Where's the list?
An earlier poster pointed you in the direction of the lists you want!
Have you looked into /usr/lib/cups/filter and /etc/cups/mime.convs ?
