Mike has confirmed that Ghostscript doesn't handle some
Level 3 Postscript operations. There are some quality
and size improvements to be had from level 3
Postscript, but compatibility is very important. We
will add an option to enable L3 in the PPD files for
users who want it.

During our pre-lininary tests for the "Linux-User"
inkjet contest we
encountered a bug, which I consider very serious (but
easy to fix):
All PPDs for CUPS carry the statement
*LanguageLevel: "3"
in the header. Please revert this to "2" as soon as
possible as ghostscript
5.5 (or rather CUPS pstoraster) doesn't seem to like it
in some circumstances.
