Hi. I'm new to CUPS and I want to add a driver for our Xerox Phaser 7400 printer.  I downloaded the driver from the Xerox website, and I added a folder called "Xerox" to /usr/share/cups/model.  What files do I need to put in that subdirectory so I can add the printer in CUPS?  These are the applicable files from the download:

-rwxrwxrwx   1    1000 users    85043 May 24  2005 xrx7400df.ppd
-rwxrwxrwx   1    1000 users    85023 May 24  2005 xrx7400dn.ppd
-rwxrwxrwx   1    1000 users    85030 May 24  2005 xrx7400dt.ppd
-rwxrwxrwx   1    1000 users    85032 May 24  2005 xrx7400dx.ppd
-rwxrwxrwx   1    1000 users    85016 May 24  2005 xrx7400n.ppd

Thanks!
