[Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is not really a bug, but a missing feature. The feature needs to be
added in various packages, first, the PPD files which come from
foomatic-db and also from every printer driver package need to get
internationalized by making them globalized/multi-language. See
http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/spec-ppd.html, section
"Globalized PPD Support". Only the PPDs of the Gutenprint driver and the
Postscript printer PPDs of HPLIP are internationalized. Second, the
printing dialogs of all applications and printer setup tools like
system-config-printer need to support internationalized PPDs. Currently
they ignore the translations in the PPDs and simply show the English
text.

I am adding tasks for printer drivers and packages which contain
printing dialogs or printer setup dialogs. If one or another package has
already implemented the support for internationalized PPDs, please mark
the task as fixed.
