I use CUPS with a Stylus Color 880 and the stock stcolor.ppd from the
cupsys package. No ghostscript. No cupsomatic. It just works.
You'll need something more than the vanilla stcolor.ppd to get access
to >720 dpi or any special features of your particular model, but,
for the vast majority of users, it should be sufficient.
