- Test the conformance of one or more files in quiet mode:
`cupstestppd -q {{path/to/file1.ppd path/to/file2.ppd ...}}`
- Get the PPD file from `stdin`, showing detailed conformance testing results:
`cupstestppd -v - < {{path/to/file.ppd}}`
- Test all PPD files under the current directory, printing the names of each file that does not conform:
`find . -name \*.ppd \! -execdir cupstestppd -q '{}' \; -print`
