- Other printing news (Till)
  - I have tested how well a CUPS queue on Ubuntu 15.04 does as an IPP
    Everywhere printer.  For that I have run the PWG self certification
    scripts on it.  There are several issues with the Bonjour and IPP
    answers from the CUPS queue, but print jobs in JPG, PDF, and PWG
    Raster come out mostly correctly (only a color image with the
    "print-colormode= monochrome" option set comes still out in color).
