462
463
464CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
465
466 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions
467 gracefully when accepting new connections, leading to
468 heavy CPU usage.
469 - The scheduler did not detect ServerBin misconfigurations
470 (STR #2470)
471 - "AuthType Default" did not work as expected when the
472 "DefaultAuthType foo" line appeared after it in the
473 cupsd.conf file.

475 options (STR #1846)

500

522 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
523 HTTP requests.
524 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
525 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
526 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

528 - The web interface now pulls the default cupsd.conf file
529 from cupsd.conf.default in the CUPS config directory.
530 - Added a help file for using Kerberos with CUPS.

576 file to use the default authentication defined by the
577 DefaultAuthType directive.
578 - The SNMP backend no longer adds a default Address line
579 when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
580 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)

582 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
583 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
584 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
585 driver.
586 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
587 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
588 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
589 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
590 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

607 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
608 (STR #2334)

610 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
611 #2383)

613 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
614 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)

616 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
617 (STR #2240)
618 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
619 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
620 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

633 icons, profiles, and dialog extensions (STR #2326)

635 main administration page. Instead, a new "List Available
636 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
637 with the list of printers.
638 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
639 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)

700 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
701 strings (STR #1969)
