[cups.general] Printer classes and Windows

Fellow cups-lovers:

I've set up a printer class and would like my Windows (2k|NT|98) clients
to use it.  I've configured all of these clients to use IPP (via the
Internet Printing update for Win98 and ShinePrint for NT).

In this class are two distinctly different printers: an HP DeskJet 1220C
and a Toshiba e-Studio28.  Both are configured in CUPS as raw devices
and PostScript printers (Toshiba has native PS support, whereas the HP
uses GIMP-Print).

I've currently got the class set up to use the PostScript devices, with
Adobe's drivers installed on the client machines.  This works great
except Ghostscript renders pages quite slowly.  So I'm interested in
using class that will print to the raw devices instead.

However, when I try to configure the clients, I get prompted to install
a driver (as you would expect), but I'm not sure what to tell it, since
the class is heterogeneous.

Where do I go from here?  I'd prefer to use IPP over SMB if at all
possible.

Thanks!
