<i>cups-driverd</i> shows or lists PPD files. It is run in
response to CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer or CUPS-Get-Devices requests.
<h3><a name="DRIVER_PROGRAMS">Driver Programs</a></h3>
Driver programs provide a interface to dynamically-generated PPD
files. The following arguments are currently defined:
-<p style="margin-left: 5.0em; text-indent: -5.0em">drivername list
-<br>
-<br>
+<dl class="man">
+<dt>drivername list
+<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em"><br>
Lists the supported PPD files to stdout.
-<p style="margin-left: 5.0em; text-indent: -5.0em">drivername cat ppdname
-<br>
-<br>
+<dt>drivername cat ppdname
+<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em"><br>
Writes the named PPD file to stdout.
+</dl>
<p>Driver programs MUST NOT query hardware or make other long-term operations that
would delay the return of a driver list. See the NOTES section below for
specific recommendations.
When run with the single argument "list", the program must list
the available PPD files it can generate to stdout using the
following format:
-<pre>
+<pre class="man">
"drivername:ppdname" language "make" "make and model"
"drivername:ppdname" language "make" "make and model" "1284 device id"
"drivername:ppdname" language "make" "make and model" "1284 device id" "(PPD product)"
<h3><a name="DRIVER_ERROR_MESSAGES">Driver Error Messages</a></h3>
Error messages can be relayed back to <i>cupsd</i> by writing them
to stderr. The following prefixes are recognized:
-<p style="margin-left: 5.0em; text-indent: -5.0em">DEBUG: [drivername]
-<br>
-<br>
+<dl class="man">
+<dt>DEBUG: [drivername]
+<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em"><br>
Debugging messages
-<p style="margin-left: 5.0em; text-indent: -5.0em">ERROR: [drivername]

+<dt>ERROR: [drivername]
+<dd style="margin-left: 5.0em"><br>

-<p style="margin-left: 5.0em; text-indent: -5.0em">INFO: [drivername]

Due to performance considerations, driver programs have been officially
deprecated and should not be used for new development. Currently only the
