       ppdi - import ppd files (deprecated)

       PPD  files  are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future feature release of CUPS.  Printers
       that do not support IPP can be supported using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).

ppdi supports the following options:

       -Iinclude-directory
            Specifies  an  alternate  include  directory.  Multiple -I options can be supplied to add additional
            directories.

       -osource-file
            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 ppdi.drv is used.
