6 | - Sending raw jobs from a client system could cause the | |
7 | client's scheduler to eventually crash (STR #1786) | |
8 | - The scheduler now checks that the notifier exists prior | |
9 | to accepting a new subscription request. | |

11 | notify-recipient schemes based on the contents of the | |
12 | ServerBin/notifier directory. | |

14 | notify-sequence-number or other required attributes | |
15 | (STR #1747) | |
16 | - Allow/Deny addresses of the form "11.22.33.*" did not | |

21 | #1768) | |

23 | deleted (STR #1776) | |
24 | - Added a new default CUPS raster format (v3) which does | |
25 | not compress the raster stream in order to provide the | |
26 | same cupsRasterReadPixels() and cupsRasterWritePixels() | |
27 | performance as CUPS 1.1.x. | |

48 | when using the old filename-based USB URIs instead of | |
49 | the "success" error. | |

51 | as 1 second was too short on congested networks (STR | |
52 | #1719) | |
53 | - The SNMP backend now uses the device description over | |
54 | the printer-make-and-model attribute when the attribute | |

561 | - Added new on-line help CGI to web interface to provide | |
562 | searchable help. | |

565 | startup delay caused by slow backends and allows new | |
566 | printers to be seen without restarting the server, | |
567 | however it limits the amount of device URI checking | |
568 | that can be done (basically now the scheduler only | |
569 | requires a URI with a method that is a listed backend) | |

590 | interface (STR #936) | |

593 | and header information to the web browser (STR #919, | |
594 | STR #1007) | |
595 | - Added a "set allowed users" interface to the web | |
596 | interface so that you can set the list of allowed or | |
597 | denied users/groups for a printer or class. | |

599 | has special meaning in the shell, config files, and in | |
600 | URIs (STR #917, STR #1202) | |
601 | - Added a new application/x-csource MIME type, and | |

603 | pretty print plain text files without the C/C++ | |
604 | keywords being highlighted. | |
605 | - The pdftops filter did not compile with GCC 4.0 (STR | |
606 | #1226) | |
607 | - The texttops filter did not highlight preprocessor | |
608 | directives followed by a tab properly. | |
609 | - HP PJL output now uses both JOB DISPLAY and RDYMSG | |
610 | commands to show the current job on the printer's | |
611 | display (STR #1218) | |
612 | - Local authentication certificates are now stored in | |
613 | /var/run/cups/certs by default instead of | |
614 | /etc/cups/certs (STR #1211) | |
615 | - Backends now use "&" to separate options in device | |
616 | URIs; "+" is still recognized but is deprecated (STR | |
617 | #842) | |

633 | when it was busy (STR #1184) | |
634 | - The cupsFile API now uses the O_APPEND option when | |
635 | opening files in append mode (STR #990) | |
636 | - The md5.h header and md5_* functions are now officially | |
637 | private and have been renamed to avoid conflicts with | |
638 | other implementations with the same name. | |

640 | fonts (STR #1093) | |
641 | - The scheduler didn't detect a closed connection in the | |
642 | middle of an IPP request (STR #1153) | |

644 | if there was input pending and the job was cancelled in | |
645 | the same input cycle (STR #1157) | |

663 | server or as soon as the server shuts down gracefully | |
664 | (STR #793) | |
665 | - The CUPS_SERVER and ServerName directives (client.conf | |
666 | and ~/.cupsrc) may now contain names of the form | |
667 | "server:port" and "/path/to/domain/socket". | |
668 | - The "cancel -u user" command now works for ordinary | |
669 | users (STR #751) | |
