<b>cups-deviced
</b><i>request-id limit user-id options
</i><h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2>
<i>cups-deviced</i> polls the backends in
<i>/usr/lib/cups/backend</i> or <i>/usr/libexec/cups/backend</i> (OS X) for a
list of available devices. It is run by <a href='man-cupsd.html?TOPIC=Man+Pages'>cupsd(8)</a> in response to a
<i>CUPS-Get-Devices</i> request. The output format is an IPP
response message. The <i>request-id</i> argument is the request ID
from the original IPP request, typically 1. The <i>limit</i>
argument is the limit value from the original IPP request - 0
means no limit. The <i>user-id</i> argument is the
requesting-user-name value from the original IPP request.
Finally, the <i>options</i> argument is a space-delimited list of
attributes ("name=value name=value ...") that were passed in
with the request. Currently <i>cups-deviced</i> looks for the
<i>requested-attributes</i> attribute and tailors the output
accordingly.
