671 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
672 HTTP requests.
673 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
674 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
675 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

725 file to use the default authentication defined by the
726 DefaultAuthType directive.

729 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
730 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
731 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
732 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
733 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
734 driver.
735 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
736 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
737 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
738 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
739 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

756 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
757 (STR #2334)
758 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
759 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
760 #2383)

765 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
766 (STR #2240)
767 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
768 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
769 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

784 main administration page. Instead, a new "List Available
785 Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
786 with the list of printers.
787 - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
788 policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
789 - The socket backend now reads any pending back-channel

801 from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)

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