504
505
506CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0

565 HTTP requests.
566 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the

618 file to use the default authentication defined by the
619 DefaultAuthType directive.

624 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
625 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the

627 driver.
628 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
629 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
630 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
631 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.

649 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
650 (STR #2334)

652 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR

658 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
659 (STR #2240)
660 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
661 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)

678 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
679 with the list of printers.
680 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
681 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
