CUPS provides a portable printing layer for UNIX(r)-based
|
|
operating systems. CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley
|
|
command-line interfaces.
|
|
|
|
CUPS uses the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") as the basis
|
|
for managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon
|
|
("LPD") Server Message Block ("SMB"), and AppSocket (a.k.a.
|
|
JetDirect) protocols are also supported with reduced
|
|
functionality. CUPS adds network printer browsing and
|
|
PostScript Printer Description ("PPD") based printing options to
|
|
support real-world printing under UNIX.
