569
570 CHANGES IN CUPS V1.3.0
571
572 - The scheduler did not handle out-of-file conditions

628 and set the current (cached) authorization string to use for
629 HTTP requests.
630 - Updated the default cupsd.conf policy to list the
631 "administrative" operations separately from the "printer
632 control" operations so that it is easier to define a

682 file to use the default authentication defined by the
683 DefaultAuthType directive.
684 - The SNMP backend no longer adds a default Address line
685 when none is specified in the snmp.conf file; this allows
686 the backend to be easily disabled as needed (STR #2434)
687 - Added a new cupsctl command for doing basic changes to
688 the cupsd.conf file (STR #1777)
689 - Added a new ppdLocalizeIPPReason() function to get the
690 localized text/URI for a given IPP reason keyword for a
691 driver.
692 - Removed the deskjet2.ppd driver, as it only worked with
693 a very small subset of HP DeskJet printers and was
694 confusing to users. The rastertohp driver still
695 supports the deskjet2.ppd options for existing queues.
696 - The scheduler did not add a trailing banner page if a

713 from a PPD file in the ppd-psversion attribute
714 (STR #2334)
715 - CUPS_GET_PPDS now reports the cupsModelNumber attribute
716 from a PPD file in the ppd-model-number attribute (STR
717 #2383)

719 ppd-type attribute based on the cupsFax and cupsFilter
720 attributes in a PPD file (STR #2383)
721 - Added a new printer attribute called "cups-version"
722 which reports the version of CUPS that is running
723 (STR #2240)
724 - backendRunLoop() now aborts immediately on SIGTERM
725 if no data has been written yet (STR #2103)
726 - Due to poor IPP support from the vendors, the SNMP

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

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

806 which specifies the character set that is used in PJL
807 strings (STR #1969)
808 - Moved the definition of the (private) _http_s structure
