cupsd − cups scheduler
cupsd [ −c cupsd.conf ] [ −f ] [ −F ] [ −h ] [ −l ] [ −s cups-files.conf ] [ −t ]
cupsd is the scheduler for CUPS. It implements a printing system based upon the Internet Printing Protocol, version 2.1, and supports most of the requirements for IPP Everywhere. If no options are specified on the command-line then the default configuration file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf will be used.
−c cupsd.conf
Uses the named cupsd.conf configuration file.
−f |
Run cupsd in the foreground; the default is to run in the background as a "daemon". | ||
−F |
Run cupsd in the foreground but detach the process from the controlling terminal and current directory. This is useful for running cupsd from init(8). | ||
−h |
Shows the program usage. | ||
−l |
This option is passed to cupsd when it is run from launchd(8) or systemd(8). |
−s cups-files.conf
Uses the named cups-files.conf configuration file.
