an overview of the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") version 1.1 as implemented in the Common UNIX Printing System ("CUPS") version 1.1.</P> <H2><A NAME="1_2">1.2 System Overview</A></H2> <P>CUPS provides a portable printing layer for UNIX®-based operating systems. It has been developed by<A HREF="http://www.easysw.com"> Easy Software Products</A> to promote a standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users. CUPS provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.</P> <P>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.</P> <P>CUPS also includes a customized version of GNU Ghostscript (currently based off GNU Ghostscript 5.50) and an image file RIP that are used to support non-PostScript printers. Sample drivers for HP and EPSON printers are included that use these filters.</P> <H2><A NAME="1_3">1.3 Document Overview</A></H2> <P>This document is organized into the following sections:</P> <UL> <LI><A HREF="#1">1 - Scope</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#2">2 - References</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#3">3 - Overview</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#4">4 - Operations</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#5">5 - Attributes</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#6">A - Glossary</A></LI> </UL> <H1><A NAME="2">2 References</A></H1> <H2><A NAME="2_1">2.1 CUPS Documentation</A></H2> <P>The following CUPS documentation is referenced by this document:</P> <UL> <LI>CUPS-CMP-1.1: CUPS Configuration Management Plan</LI> <LI>CUPS-IDD-1.1: CUPS System Interface Design Description</LI> <LI>CUPS-IPP-1.1: CUPS Implementation of IPP</LI> <LI>CUPS-SAM-1.1.x: CUPS Software Administrators Manual</LI> <LI>CUPS-SDD-1.1: CUPS Software Design Description</LI> <LI>CUPS-SPM-1.1.x: CUPS Software Programming Manual</LI> <LI>CUPS-SSR-1.1: CUPS Software Security Report</LI> <LI>CUPS-STP-1.1: CUPS Software Test Plan</LI> <LI>CUPS-SUM-1.1.x: CUPS Software Users Manual</LI> <LI>CUPS-SVD-1.1: CUPS Software Version Description</LI> </UL> <H2><A NAME="2_2">2.2 Other Documents</A></H2> <P>The following non-CUPS documents are referenced by this document:</P> <UL> <LI><A HREF="http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/PDFS/TN/5003.PPD_Spec_v4.3.pdf"> Adobe PostScript Printer Description File Format Specification, Version 4.3.</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/PDFS/TN/PLRM.pdf"> Adobe PostScript Language Reference, Third Edition.</A></LI> <LI>IPP: Job and Printer Set Operations</LI> <LI>IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport</LI> <LI>IPP/1.1: Implementers Guide</LI> <LI>IPP/1.1: Model and Semantics</LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1179.txt">RFC 1179, Line Printer Daemon Protocol</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2567.txt">RFC 2567, Design Goals for an Internet Printing Protocol</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2568.txt">RFC 2568, Rationale for the Structure of the Model and Protocol</A> for the Internet Printing Protocol</LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2569.txt">RFC 2569, Mapping between LPD and IPP Protocols</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC 2616, Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2617.txt">RFC 2617, HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access</A> Authentication</LI> </UL> <H1><A NAME="3">3 Overview</A></H1> <P>CUPS 1.1 implements IPP/1.1 and the operations and attributes defined in the "IPP: Job and Printer Set Operations", "IPP/1.1: Output-bin Attribute Extension", and "IPP/1.1: finishings 'fold',' trim', and 'bale' attribute values extension" specifications.</P> <P>CUPS also provides 13 new operations and many new attributes to support multiple IPP printers and printer classes on a single host.</P> <H2><A NAME="3_1">3.1 IPP URIs</A></H2> <P>CUPS supports both the "http" and "ipp" methods. The following resource names are used:</P> <DL> <DT>method://hostname:port/</DT> <DD>Can be used for all "get" operations.</DD> <DT>method://hostname:port/admin</DT> <DD>Used for all administrative operations.</DD> <DT>method://hostname:port/classes/name</DT> <DD>Specifies a printer class.</DD> <DT>method://hostname:port/jobs/id</DT> <DD>Specifies a job.</DD> <DT>method://hostname:port/printers/name</DT> <DD>Specifies a printer.</DD> </DL> <P>So a typical printer URI would be "ipp://foo.bar.com/printers/LaserJet".</P> <P>In addition, the CUPS server also supports normal browser access to "method://hostname:port/admin/", "method://hostname:port/classes/", "method://hostname:port/jobs/", and "method://hostname:port/printers/" to view and manage resources on the server dynamically.</P> <H2><A NAME="3_2">3.2 CUPS IPP Operations</A></H2> <P>CUPS provides 13 extension operations in addition to most of the standard IPP and registered extension
