579 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
580
581 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

637 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
638 HTTP requests.
639 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
640 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
641 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

644 from cupsd.conf.default in the CUPS config directory.
645 - Added a help file for using Kerberos with CUPS.

691 file to use the default authentication defined by the
692 DefaultAuthType directive.

695 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
696 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
697 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
698 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
699 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
700 driver.
701 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
702 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
703 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
704 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
705 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

722 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
723 (STR #2334)
724 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
725 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
726 #2383)

728 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
729 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
730 - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
731 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
732 (STR #2240)
733 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
734 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
735 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

740 - The scheduler now recreates the CUPS log directory as

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

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

766 - The scheduler now reports the PostScript product string
767 from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)

815 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
816 strings (STR #1969)
817 - Moved the definition of the (private) _http_s structure
