  24 .TH cupsd 8 "Common UNIX Printing System" "18 July 2002" "Easy Software Products"
  25 .SH NAME
  26 cupsd \- common unix printing system daemon
  27 .SH SYNOPSIS
  28 .B cupsd
  29 [ \-c
  30 .I config-file
  31 ] [ \-f ] [ \-F ]
  32 .SH DESCRIPTION
  33 \fIcupsd\fR is the scheduler for the Common UNIX Printing System. It
  34 implements a printing system based upon the Internet Printing Protocol,
  35 version 1.1.  If no options are specified on the command-line then the
  36 default configuration file (usually \fI/etc/cups/cupsd.conf\fR) will be
  37 used.
  38 .PP
  39 The \fI-f\fR option forces \fIcupsd\fR to run in the foreground; the
  40 default is to run in the background as a "daemon".
  41 .PP
  42 The \fI-F\fR option forces \fIcupsd\fR to run in the foreground
  43 but detaches the process from the controlling terminal and
  44 current directory. This is useful for running \fIcupsd\fR from
  45 \fIinit\fR.
  46 .SH COMPATIBILITY
  47 \fIcupsd\fR implements all of the required IPP/1.1 attributes and
  48 operations. It also implements several CUPS-specific administration
  49 operations.
