By default, cupsfilter generates a PDF file. OPTIONS -c config-file Uses the named cupsd.conf configuration file. -m mime/type Specifies the destination file type. The default file type is application/pdf. -n copies Specifies the number of copies to generate. -o name=value Specifies options to pass to the CUPS filters. -p filename.ppd Specifies the PPD file to use. -t title Specifies the document title.
