foomatic-db 20050720-1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu dapper

linuxprinting.org printer support - database
 Foomatic is a printing system designed to make it easier to set up
 common printers for use with Debian (and other operating systems).
 It provides the "glue" between a print spooler (like CUPS or lpr) and
 your actual printer, by telling your computer how to process files
 sent to the printer.
 .
 This package contains the printer database distributed by
 linuxprinting.org for most common drivers. You will probably need
 the foomatic-db-engine package for this package to be useful.
 .
 The foomatic-db-hpijs package adds the HPIJS printer driver backend,
 which provides improved support for consumer inkjet and laser
 printers from Hewlett-Packard and other companies.
 .
 The foomatic-db-gutenprint package adds additional printers supported
 by the Gutenprint (formerly GIMP-Print) printer driver backend, most
 commonly used for color photo printing on consumer inkjets.
 .
 The foo2zjs package adds backend support for a number of printers
 from HP and Minolta/QMS that use the Zenographics ZjStream protocol.
