NAME

       mime.convs - mime type conversion file for cups

DESCRIPTION

       The  mime.convs  file  defines the filters that are available for converting files from one format to another. The standard filters support
       text, PDF, PostScript, HP-GL/2, and many types of image files.

       Additional filters can be added to the mime.convs file or (preferably) to other files in the CUPS configuration directory.

       Each line in the mime.convs file is a comment, blank, or filter line. Comment lines start with the # character. Filter  lines  specify  the
       source and destination MIME types along with a relative cost associated with the filter and the filter to run:

       super/type super/type cost filter
       application/postscript application/vnd.cups-raster 50 pstoraster

NAME

       cupsd - cups scheduler

SYNOPSIS

       cupsd [ -c cupsd.conf ] [ -f ] [ -F ] [ -h ] [ -l ] [ -s cups-files.conf ] [ -t ]

DESCRIPTION

       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.

OPTIONS

       -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.

       -t   Test the configuration file for syntax errors.

FILES

       /etc/cups/classes.conf
       /etc/cups/cups-files.conf
       /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
       /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.convs
       /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.types
       /etc/cups/printers.conf
       /etc/cups/subscriptions.conf

CONFORMING TO

       cupsd implements all of the required IPP/2.1 attributes and operations. It also implements several CUPS-specific administrative operations.

EXAMPLES

       Run cupsd in the background with the default configuration file:

	   cupsd

       Test a configuration file called test.conf:

	   cupsd -t -c test.conf

       Run cupsd in the foreground with a test configuration file called test.conf:

	   cupsd -f -c test.conf
