+.TH CUPS\-GENPPDCONFIG "8" "@RELEASE_DATE@" "Version @GUTENPRINT_VERSION@" "Gutenprint Manual Pages"
+.SH NAME
+cups\-genppdconfig \- a user-friendly interface to generate Gutenprint PPD files for use with CUPS
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B cups\-genppdconfig
+[\fI\-d ppd_directory\fR]
+.br
+.B update\-cups\-genppd
+[\fI\-d pdd_directory\fR]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBcups\-genppdconfig\fR generates \fIGutenprint\fR PPD files for use with CUPS.
+The program allows the selection of the base directory to create the PPDs in,
+and the printers and languages desired. The default settings are taken from
+the contents of the base directory. Note that unselecting an item will
+\fBnot\fP remove it from the disk; you must remove unwanted printers and
+languages by deleting the files and directories respectively.
+.PP
+If \fBdialog\fP is installed, it will be used to create the user interface,
+using colour, 3D-look dialog boxes etc. If dialog cannot be found, perlmenu
+will be used instead to create a simpler, though functionally identical,
+interface.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-d \fIppd-directory\fP
+Use \fIppd-directory\fP as the base directory to create PPD files in. The
+default printer and language selections will also be obtained from this
+directory. By default, the base directory is
+\fP@cups_conf_datadir@/model/gutenprint\fP.
