The description could be improved. I'll fix this for the next upload.
ijsgutenprint is an IJS server (driver), which communicates with
Ghostscript (IJS client) using the IJS (InkJet Server) communications
protocol. IJS is a method for separating ghostscript drivers from
ghostscript, to allow ghostscript to be more extensible.
The lack of a good description is basically because ijsgutenprint is
not something an end user should use directly; tools like apsfilter
should take care of the setup for you. Or (better) use CUPS with
cupsys-driver-gutenprint.

Roger
