582 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0

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

694 file to use the default authentication defined by the
695 DefaultAuthType directive.

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

725 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
726 (STR #2334)
727 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
728 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
729 #2383)

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

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

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