  32 .SH DESCRIPTION
  33 \fBippfind\fR finds services registered with a DNS server or available through local devices.
  34 Its primary purpose is to find IPP printers and show their URIs, show their current status, or run commands.
  35 .SS REGISTRATION TYPES
  36 \fBippfind\fR supports the following registration types:
  37 .TP 5
  38 _http._tcp
  39 HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP, RFC 2616)
  40 .TP 5
  41 _https._tcp
  42 Secure HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTPS, RFC 2818)
  43 .TP 5
  44 _ipp._tcp
  45 Internet Printing Protocol (IPP, RFC 2911)
  46 .TP 5
  47 _ipps._tcp
  48 Secure Internet Printing Protocol (IPPS, draft)
  49 .TP 5
  50 _printer._tcp
  51 Line Printer Daemon (LPD, RFC 1179)
  52 .SS EXPRESSIONS
  53 \fBippfind\fR supports expressions much like the
  54 .BR find (1)
  55 utility.
  56 However, unlike
  57 .BR find (1),
  58 \fBippfind\fR uses POSIX regular expressions instead of shell filename matching patterns.
  59 If \fI\-\-exec\fR, \fI\-l\fR, \fI\-\-ls\fR, \fI\-p\fR, \fI\-\-print\fR, \fI\-\-print\-name\fR, \fI\-q\fR, \fI\-\-quiet\fR, \fI\-s\fR, or \fI\-x\fR is not specified, \fBippfind\fR adds \fI\-\-print\fR to print the service URI of anything it finds.
  60 The following expressions are supported:
  61 .TP 5
  62 \fB\-d \fIregex\fR
  63 .TP 5
  64 \fB\-\-domain \fIregex\fR
  65 True if the domain matches the given regular expression.

  73 True is the hostname matches the given regular expression.
  74 .TP 5
  75 .B \-l
  76 .TP 5
  77 .B \-\-ls
  78 Lists attributes returned by Get-Printer-Attributes for IPP printers and traditional \fIfind\fR "-ls" output for HTTP URLs.
  79 The result is true if the URI is accessible, false otherwise.
  80 .TP 5
  81 .B \-\-local
  82 True if the service is local to this computer.
  83 .TP 5

  95 True if the URI resource path matches the given regular expression.
  96 .TP 5
  97 \fB\-P \fInumber\fR[\fB-\fInumber\fR]
  98 .TP 5

 110 .B \-\-quiet
 111 Quiet mode - just returns the exit codes below.
 112 .TP 5
 113 .B \-r
 114 .TP 5
 115 .B \-\-remote

 117 .TP 5
 118 .B \-s
