10 configuration <I>directives</I> that control how the server
11 functions. Each directive is listed on a line by itself followed
12 by its value. Comments are introduced using the number sign ("#")
13 character at the beginning of a line.</P>
14
15 <P>Since the server configuration file consists of plain text,
16 you can use your favorite text editor to make changes to it.
17 After making any changes, restart the <CODE>cupsd(8)</CODE>
