TuboPrint is a piece of commercial software which I happen to find an
excellent companion to Gimp for producing colour images and, yes, It
works with Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10. I posed my question here because I
believe I am not the only Gimp user who uses TurboPrint and someone may
be able to advise me on how to achieve what I want via CUPS.
