11 .SH NAME
12 cupsd.conf \- server configuration file for cups
13 .SH DESCRIPTION
14 The
15 .I cupsd.conf
16 file configures the CUPS scheduler,
17 .BR cupsd (8).
18 It is normally located in the
19 .I /etc/cups
20 directory.
21 Each line in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a comment.
22 Configuration directives typically consist of a name and zero or more values separated by whitespace.
23 The configuration directive name and values are case-insensitive.
24 Comment lines start with the # character.

152 An average print to a non-PostScript printer needs a filter limit of about 200.
153 A PostScript printer needs about half that (100).
154 Setting the limit below these thresholds will effectively limit the scheduler to printing a single job at any time.
155 The default limit is "0".
156 .\"#FilterNice
157 .TP 5
158 \fBFilterNice \fInice-value\fR

174 .TP 5
175 \fBHostNameLookups Double\fR
176 Specifies whether to do reverse lookups on connecting clients.
177 The "Double" setting causes
178 .BR cupsd (8)
179 to verify that the hostname resolved from the address matches one of the addresses returned for that hostname.
180 Double lookups also prevent clients with unregistered addresses from connecting to your server.
181 The default is "Off" to avoid the potential server performance problems with hostname lookups.
182 Only set this option to "On" or "Double" if absolutely required.
183 .\"#IdleExitTimeout
184 .TP 5
185 \fBIdleExitTimeout \fIseconds\fR
186 Specifies the length of time to wait before shutting down due to inactivity.
187 The default is "60" seconds.

191 .\"#JobKillDelay
192 .TP 5
193 \fBJobKillDelay \fIseconds\fR
194 Specifies the number of seconds to wait before killing the filters and backend associated with a canceled or held job.
195 The default is "30".
196 .\"#JobRetryInterval
197 .TP 5
198 \fBJobRetryInterval \fIseconds\fR
199 Specifies the interval between retries of jobs in seconds.
200 This is typically used for fax queues but can also be used with normal print queues whose error policy is "retry-job" or "retry-current-job".

202 .\"#JobRetryLimit
203 .TP 5
204 \fBJobRetryLimit \fIcount\fR
205 Specifies the number of retries that are done for jobs.
206 This is typically used for fax queues but can also be used with normal print queues whose error policy is "retry-job" or "retry-current-job".
207 The default is "5".
208 .\"#KeepAlive
209 .TP 5
210 \fBKeepAlive Yes\fR
211 .TP 5
212 \fBKeepAlive No\fR
213 Specifies whether to support HTTP keep-alive connections.

440 \fBSSLOptions None\fR
441 Sets encryption options (only in /etc/cups/client.conf).
442 By default, CUPS only supports encryption using TLS v1.0 or higher using known secure cipher suites.
443 Security is reduced when \fIAllow\fR options are used.
444 Security is enhanced when \fIDeny\fR options are used.
445 The \fIAllowDH\fR option enables cipher suites using plain Diffie-Hellman key negotiation (not supported on systems using GNU TLS).
446 The \fIAllowRC4\fR option enables the 128-bit RC4 cipher suites, which are required for some older clients.
447 The \fIAllowSSL3\fR option enables SSL v3.0, which is required for some older clients that do not support TLS v1.0.
448 The \fIDenyCBC\fR option disables all CBC cipher suites.
449 The \fIDenyTLS1.0\fR option disables TLS v1.0 support - this sets the minimum protocol version to TLS v1.1.
450 The \fIMinTLS\fR options set the minimum TLS version to support.

817 .\"#Classification
818 .TP 5
819 \fBClassification \fIbanner\fR
820 .br
821 Specifies the security classification of the server.
822 Any valid banner name can be used, including "classified", "confidential", "secret", "topsecret", and "unclassified", or the banner can be omitted to disable secure printing functions.
823 The default is no classification banner.
824 .\"#ClassifyOverride
825 .TP 5
826 \fBClassifyOverride Yes\fR
827 .TP 5
828 \fBClassifyOverride No\fR
829 .br
830 Specifies whether users may override the classification (cover page) of individual print jobs using the "job-sheets" option.
831 The default is "No".
832 .\"#PageLogFormat
833 .TP 5
834 \fBPageLogFormat \fIformat-string\fR
835 Specifies the format of PageLog lines.
836 Sequences beginning with percent (%) characters are replaced with the corresponding information, while all other characters are copied literally.
837 The following percent sequences are recognized:
838 .nf
839
840 "%%" inserts a single percent character.
841 "%{name}" inserts the value of the specified IPP attribute.
842 "%C" inserts the number of copies for the current page.
843 "%P" inserts the current page number.
844 "%T" inserts the current date and time in common log format.
845 "%j" inserts the job ID.
846 "%p" inserts the printer name.
847 "%u" inserts the username.
848
849 .fi
850 The default is the empty string, which disables page logging.
851 The string "%p %u %j %T %P %C %{job-billing} %{job-originating-host-name} %{job-name} %{media} %{sides}" creates a page log with the standard items.
852 Use "%{job-impressions-completed}" to insert the number of pages (sides) that were printed, or "%{job-media-sheets-completed}" to insert the number of sheets that were printed.
853 .\"#RIPCache
854 .TP 5
855 \fBRIPCache \fIsize\fR
856 Specifies the maximum amount of memory to use when converting documents into bitmaps for a printer.
857 The default is "128m".
858 .SH NOTES
859 File, directory, and user configuration directives that used to be allowed in the \fBcupsd.conf\fR file are now stored in the
860 .BR cups-files.conf (5)
861 file instead in order to prevent certain types of privilege escalation attacks.
862 .PP
863 The scheduler MUST be restarted manually after making changes to the \fBcupsd.conf\fR file.
864 On Linux this is typically done using the
865 .BR systemctl (8)
866 command, while on macOS the
867 .BR launchctl (8)
868 command is used instead.
869 .PP
870 The @LOCAL macro name can be confusing since the system running
871 .B cupsd
872 often belongs to a different set of subnets from its clients.
873 .SH CONFORMING TO
874 The \fBcupsd.conf\fR file format is based on the Apache HTTP Server configuration file format.
875 .SH EXAMPLES
876 Log everything with a maximum log file size of 32 megabytes:
877 .nf
878
879 AccessLogLevel all
880 LogLevel debug2
881 MaxLogSize 32m
882
883 .fi
884 Require authentication for accesses from outside the 10. network:
885 .nf
886
887 <Location />
888 Order allow,deny
889 Allow from 10./8
890 AuthType Basic
891 Require valid-user
892 Satisfy any
