SYNOPSIScupsd [ -c config-file ] [ -f ]
DESCRIPTIONcupsd is the scheduler for the Common UNIX Printing System. It imple‐
ments a printing system based upon the Internet Printing Protocol, ver‐
sion 1.1. If no options are specified on the command-line then the
default configuration file (usually /etc/cups/cupsd.conf) will be used.
The -f option forces cupsd to run in the foreground; the default is to
run in the background as a "daemon".
COMPATIBILITYcupsd implements all of the required IPP/1.1 attributes and operations.
It also implements several CUPS-specific administation operations.
