Plus, even more new gaps by +the recent CUPS 1.2 release (which added even more new features). + + + --------------------------- + In General: + --------------------------- +* a GUI to configure client.conf is missing [1.1] +* a GUI to configure snmp.conf is missing [1.2] +* a GUI to configure subscriptions.conf is missing [1.2] + +Other stuff that's new: + +- port monitor support [1.2] +- unique job IDs support [1.2] +- print a self test page (if driver supports CUPS command file format, + you can now print the printer's self-test page) [1.2] +- perform a self-cleaning of print heads (if driver supports CUPS + command file format, you can now clean print heads) [1.2] +- per-printer sharing support [1.2] +- per-printer error policy support [1.2] +- per-printer operation policy support [1.2] +- IPP notifications support [1.2] +- cupsd.conf environment variable support [1.2] +- driver interfaces support (CUPS 1.2 supports "driver interfaces" + which allow a driver to advertise the printers it supports and + automatically generate the PPD file as needed) [1.2] +- improved error handling support (CUPS 1.2 API provides convenience + functions to get full error message of last request) [1.2] +- improved "backchannel" support (CUPS 1.2 API provides backends and + filters with access to information sent back from a printer) [1.2] +- globalized PPD support [1.2] +- custom PPD option support [1.2] +- extended PPD API support (CUPS 1.2 PPD API got added new functions: + reading from CUPS files; localization of globalized PPD files; + emitting of arbitrary ranges of options; custom option support [like + passwords, passcodes, curves, integers, points, reals and strings]; + enhanced JCL support; and access to all options in a PPD file) [1.2] +- CUPS ICC profiles support [1.2] + + + -------------------------------- + More specifically: + -------------------------------- + +kprinter +-------- + +* add support for "-U username somebody" (or, in a more IPP-conforming + syntax: "-o job-originating-username=username"). + +* add support for multilanguage PPD files + +* add support for other CUPS extensions re. PPD parameters; especially + important is support for handling custom PPD options! + + +kaddprinterwizard +----------------- + +* add support for IPv6 syntax when specifying or parsing network + addresses + +* add support for new "snmp" backend in CUPS 1.2. + + The snmp backend can auto-discover most printer types which are + attached to the LAN with a NIC. For a sort of introduction to its + features see http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2138/. + + To check it from the commandline, just run it without any parameter: + "/usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp" (Ubuntu Dapper users have it disabled + by default; just run "/usr/lib/cups/backend-available/snmp". If you + have network printers in your LAN, you'll likely see an output like + + network ipp://10.162.2.92:631/ipp "Ricoh IPP Printer v2.0" "Ricoh IPP Printer v2.0 10.162.2.92" "" + network socket://10.162.2.93 "infotec ISC824" "infotec ISC824 10.162.2.93" "" + network lpd://10.162.2.94/passthru "Canon iR5000-6000" "Canon iR5000-6000 10.162.2.94" "" + + kaddprintwizard should be able to parse the CUPS snmp backend's + output for adding the auto-discovered network printers to the + local setup. + +* add support for the following parameters in printers.conf (which + where newly added in CUPS 1.2.0): + - ErrorPolicy + - OpPolicy + - Option + - PortMonitor + - Shared + - StateTime + For information purposes: currently supported parameters are: + - Accepting + - AllowUser + - DenyUser + - DeviceURI + - Info + - JobSheets + - KLimit + - Location + - PageLimit + - QuotaPeriod + - State + - StateMessage + + + +kaddprinterwizard --kdeconfig +----------------------------- + +* add support for unix domain socket support (was added in CUPS 1.2.x) + + CUPS 1.2 newly introduced the option to communicate via "unix + domain sockets" for local cases (CUPS client and server on the + same host [=localhost].
