683 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the

687 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
688 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
689 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.

707 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
708 (STR #2334)

719 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)

736 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
737 with the list of printers.
738 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
739 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
