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

659 driver.
660 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
661 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
662 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
663 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.

681 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
682 (STR #2334)

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

692 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
693 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)

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

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