31 \fIcups-deviced\fR polls the backends in
32 \fI@CUPS_SERVERBIN@/backend\fR for a list of available devices.
33 It is run by \fIcupsd(8)\fR in response to a
34 \fICUPS-Get-Devices\fR request. The output format is an IPP
35 response message. The \fIrequest-id\fR argument is the request ID
36 from the original IPP request, typically 1. The \Ilimit\fR
37 argument is the limit value from the original IPP request - 0
38 means no limit. The \fIuser-id\fR argument is the
39 requesting-user-name value from the original IPP request.
40 Finally, the \fIoptions\fR argument is a space-delimited list of
41 attributes ("name=value name=value \...") that were passed in
42 with the request. Currently \fIcups-deviced\fR looks for the
43 \fIrequested-attributes\fR attribute and tailors the output
