It implements a printing system based upon the Internet Printing Protocol, version 1.1. If no options are specified on the command-line then the default configuration file (usually \fI/etc/cups/cupsd.conf\fR) will be used. .PP The \fI-f\fR option forces \fIcupsd\fR to run in the foreground; the default is to run in the background as a "daemon". .PP The \fI-F\fR option forces \fIcupsd\fR to run in the foreground but detaches the process from the controlling terminal and current directory. This is useful for running \fIcupsd\fR from \fIinit\fR. .SH COMPATIBILITY \fIcupsd\fR implements all of the required IPP/1.1 attributes and operations. It also implements several CUPS-specific administation operations. .SH SEE ALSO backend(1), classes.conf(5), cupsd.conf(5), filter(1), mime.convs(5), mime.types(5), printers.conf(5), CUPS Implementation of IPP, CUPS Interface Design Description, CUPS Software Administrators Manual, http://localhost:631/documentation.html .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright 1993-2003 by Easy Software Products, All Rights Reserved. .\" .\" End of "$Id: cupsd.man,v 1.1.1.6 2002/12/24 00:07:11 jlovell Exp $". .\"
