+BUGS
+----
+
+- Administration of remote printers: driver settings
+
+- Allow to view a set of specified printers in the job viewer
+ (instead of "one or all").
+
+
+WISHES
+------
+
+- Implement a generic banner behavior: banners would be insrted
+ as standard print file before and/or after the actual file. This
+ would allow for KDE-specific banners and translated banners.
+
+- Possibility to specify a different input slot for first page???
+
+- add "Subject" or "Regarding" to kdeprintfax interface: look first
+ if this is possible in efax and/or hylafax
+
+- add the possibility to view a printjob file (if possible)
+
+- restarting server: use of "ps" in a subshell to get the pid, possibility
+ of authentification (put this into separate program that would restart
+ itself using kdesu).
+
+- CUPS: a "Printer/Server Debugging Helper" would be nice: you could
+ vary the LogLevel there, restart the server, provide a viewer
+ for the error_log (maybe the other logs too) with life updates
+ including means to "grep" for errors and keywords. It could even
+ become extended to provide for some automatic reporting tool that
+ collects the data to be send in for bug reports (like PPD in use,
+ CUPS version, KDEPrint version, printer-make-and-modell, usage
+ of foomatic/cupsomatic, ghostscript version etc.). -kp-
+
+- log viewer: page_log, error_log, ... This could be based on XML
+ templates and produce printable HTML reports.
+
+- in CUPS possibility to filter printer using printer-type attribute,
+ to get only printers having a specified capability. Service Location
+ Protocol might be useful here (perhaps via the Knot).
+
+- show information from Foomatic DB in some way (comments)
+
+- "Save as new instance" possibility in the print dialog
+
+- raw printing option
+
+- add a generic option edit line to let the user specify any option
+ he wants
+
+- support new options for N-up printing in CUPS, put everything in
+ a separate page with graphical widgets, and replace the N-up zone
+ of the "General" page with Color/GrayScale.
+
+- allow to set the job title in kprinter
+
+- preview multi files sequentially
+
+- support for ICC (have a look at GS-7.05 that support ICC)
+ http://www.macup.ru/reviews/3_2002/HP_1ab.html
+ http://www.macup.ru/reviews/3_2002/HP_2ab.html
+ http://www.macup.ru/reviews/3_2002/HP_3.html
+ http://www.macup.ru/reviews/3_2002/HP_4ab.html
+
+- accessing Fax settings from "Fax" printer configuration dialog??
+
+- allow extracting PPD files from exe (like those from Adobe) using
+ the cabextract utility http://www.kyz.uklinux.net/cabextract.php3
+
+- cupsaddsmb: allow downloading/extracting the Adobe PS driver package
+ using cabextract utility. Note: in cups-1.1.16, a free Windows
+ driver should be included, such that Adobe drivers won't be needed
+ anymore.
