Multiple <i>-I</i> options can be supplied to add additional directories. <dt><b>-o </b><i>source-file</i> <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Specifies the PPD source file to update. If the source file does not exist, a new source file is created. Otherwise the existing file is merged with the new PPD file(s) on the command-line. If no source file is specified, the filename <i>ppdi.drv</i> is used. </dl> <h2 class="title"><a name="NOTES">Notes</a></h2> PPD files are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future feature release of CUPS.
