(3) questions for exploring my problem:
    (i) CUPS1.4.6 need Ghostscirpt (must be installed)?
    (ii) Does CUPS use filter-locale to print UTF8 (Chinese character)?
         Or it can print the document (pdf, text, ps) with automatically conversion ( I don't need to set anything)?
    (iii) Does Redhat4.0 need to install the related fonts?
