Comment 8 for bug 513168

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.
