 343           device ID string on Linux (STR #2553)
 344         - The IPP backend now checks the job status at
 345           variable intervals (from 1 to 10 seconds) instead
 346           of every 10 seconds for faster remote printing
 347           (STR #2548)
 348         - "lpr -p" and "lpr -l" did not work (STR #2544)

 384
 385 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.2
 386

 414           resolutions.
 415         - Fixed many problems in the various translations and added
 416           a new "checkpo" utility to validate them.

 421         - If a remote printer stopped while a job was being sent, the
 422           local queue would also get stopped and the job re-queued,
 423           resulting in duplicate prints in some cases.
 424         - A few Apple-specific job options needed to be omitted when

 440         - The scheduler makefile contained a typo (STR #2483)
 441         - The TBCP and BCP port monitors did not handle the trailing
 442           CTRL-D in some PostScript output properly.

 450         - ppdLocalize() did not work for country-specific localizations.
 451
 452
 453 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
 454
 455         - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions
 456           gracefully when accepting new connections, leading to
 457           heavy CPU usage.
 458         - The scheduler did not detect ServerBin misconfigurations
 459           (STR #2470)
 460         - "AuthType Default" did not work as expected when the
 461           "DefaultAuthType foo" line appeared after it in the
 462           cupsd.conf file.
 463         - The on-line help did not describe many common printing

 471         - The PostScript filter did not cleanly terminate when
 472           the job was canceled or stopped.
 473         - Fixed generation of Kerberos credentials for remote
 474           printing.  Note that this requires a recent version of
 475           MIT Kerberos with a working krb5_cc_new_unique()
 476           function or Heimdal Kerberos.
 477         - Added Portuguese and updated Italian message catalogs.
 478

 487
 488 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3rc1
 489
 490         - Updated the German localization (STR #2443)
 491         - cupsAdminGetServerSettings() did not handle </Foo> properly.
 492         - When lprm and cancel are run with no job ID, they now will
 493           cancel the first stopped job if no pending or processing
 494           jobs are left in the queue.
 495         - The scheduler now logs successful print jobs, filter
 496           failures, and the job file types at the default log
 497           level (STR #2458)
 498         - The scheduler now logs the usernames it is using for
 499           authorization at LogLevel debug instead of debug2 (STR #2448)
 500         - Added Intellitech Intellibar and Zebra CPCL PPDs to the list
 501           of installed PPDs.

 506           (STR #2439)
 507         - Moving a job that was printing did not stop the job on the
 508           original printer (STR #2262)
 509         - The cups-lpd mini-daemon did not work on Mac OS X server.
 510         - Added httpGetAuthString() and httpSetAuthString() APIs to get
 511           and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
 512           HTTP requests.
 513         - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
 514           "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
 515           control" operations so that it is easier to define a
 516           group of users that are "printer operators".
 517         - The web interface now pulls the default cupsd.conf file
 518           from cupsd.conf.default in the CUPS config directory.
 519         - Added a help file for using Kerberos with CUPS.
 520         - The scheduler now strips the "@KDC" portion of Kerberos

 522           the group membership lists used by CUPS.
 523         - cupsMarkOptions() could (incorrectly) leave multiple option
 524           choices marked.

 528           (STR #2455)
 529         - The default cupsd.conf file had typos and old operation names
 530           (STR #2450)
 531         - The scheduler now erases authentication cache files using the
 532           7-pass US DoD algorithm.
 533         - Delegated Kerberos credentials (proxy authentication) did not
 534           work.
 535         - The filter makefile did not optimize the libcupsimage.2.dylib
 536           with a sectorder file.
 537         - The IPP backend incorrectly wrote an empty printer message
 538           when processing the "none" state reason.
 539         - The USB backend could deadlock on Mac OS X while performing
 540           a side-channel command.

 550 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3b1
 551
 552         - Copyright updates - CUPS is now owned by Apple Inc.
 553         - Documentation updates (STR #1775, STR #2027, STR #2130,
 554           STR #2131, STR #2263, STR #2356, STR #2397)
 555         - Added new cupsfilter utility (STR #1734)
 556         - Added new job-printer-state-message and
 557           job-printer-state-reasons attributes to jobs (STR #2418)
 558         - Added LDAP+SSL support (STR #1967)
 559         - CUPS now supports authentication via peer credentials
 560           over domain sockets (STR #2242, STR #2277)
 561         - The CUPS sample driver PPDs are now generated by the PPD
 562           compiler and include all of the localized languages by
 563           default (STR #2164)
 564         - You can now specify "AuthType Default" in the cupsd.conf
 565           file to use the default authentication defined by the
 566           DefaultAuthType directive.
 567         - The SNMP backend no longer adds a default Address line
 568           when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
 569           the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
 570         - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
 571           the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
 572         - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
 573           localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
 574           driver.
 575         - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
 576           a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
 577           confusing to users.  The rastertohp driver still
 578           supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
 579         - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a
 580           client did not specify the last document in a job (STR
 581           #1711)
 582         - The scheduler did not report Bonjour shared printers as
 583           remote printers (STR #2384)
 584         - Added new -R and -W options to the cupstestppd program
 585           for greater control over the testing of PPDs.
 586         - Added a new cupsGetServerPPD() function for getting
 587           an available PPD from the server (STR #2334)
 588         - Added a new cupsDoIORequest() function for reading
 589           and writing files via IPP requests (STR #2334)
 590         - Added a new CUPS_GET_PPD operation for getting an
 591           available PPD file on the server (STR #2334)
 592         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports multiple ppd-product values
 593           based on the PPD ModelName and Product strings (STR
 594           #2334, STR #2383)
 595         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the PSVersion attributes
 596           from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
 597           (STR #2334)
 598         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
 599           from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
 600           #2383)
 601         - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports a driver type string in the
 602           ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
 603           attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
 604         - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
 605           which reports the version of CUPS that is running
 606           (STR #2240)
 607         - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
 608           if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
 609         - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP
 610           backend no longer tries IPP connections; instead,
 611           it now uses a lookup file with fallback to port 9100
 612           (socket://address) and 515 (lpd://address) printing
 613           (STR #2035, STR #2354)
 614         - The scheduler now recreates the CUPS log directory as
 615           needed (STR #2353)
 616         - cupsLangDefault() now maps new-style Apple locale names
 617           to the traditional ll_CC form (STR #2357)
 618         - Add new cupsArrayNew2() API to support hashed lookups
 619           of array elements (STR #2358)
 620         - ppdConflicts() optimizations (STR #2358)
 621         - The cupstestppd program now tests for existing filters,
 622           icons, profiles, and dialog extensions (STR #2326)
 623         - The web interface no longer lists new printers on the
 624           main administration page.  Instead, a new "List Available
 625           Printers" button is provided that shows a separate page
 626           with the list of printers.
 627         - The web interface now supports setting the banner and
 628           policy options on raw printers and classes (STR #2238)
 629         - The socket backend now reads any pending back-channel
 630           data before shutting down the socket (STR #2325)
 631         - Added a new ErrorPolicy directive in the cupsd.conf
 632           file (STR #1871)
 633         - Printers that use JCL options are now exported to Samba

 638           printer-alert-description attributes (STR #2088)
 639         - Added support for LPD "stream" mode (STR #2036)
 640         - The scheduler now reports the PostScript product string
 641           from PPD files in CUPS-Get-PPDs responses (STR #1900)
 642         - Raw printing with queues pointing to the file pseudo-
 643           device and multiple files and/or banners now works (STR
 644           #1933)
 645         - Added new public cupsAdminGetServerSettings() and
 646           cupsAdminSetServerSettings() APIs.
 647         - Added new "makebuttons" script in the "tools" directory
 648           for creating web interface buttons (STR #2231)
 649         - Added support for DNS-SD (aka "Bonjour") printer sharing
