Hi,

I have a hard time after upgrading to cups-1.4.1 (on Gentoo).
First, I don't see most of the options which were available for the
printer like paper tray, banner, watermark using the same PPD files
as before.
What has changed with version 1.4 ?
Furthermore I cannot even print a test page to a network printer
getting
Unsupported format 'application/vnd.cups-banner'

Is there an upgrade guide for dummies?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.
