NAME
cups-deviced - cups device daemon
SYNOPSIS
cups-deviced request-id limit user-id options
DESCRIPTION
cups-deviced polls the backends in /usr/lib/cups/backend or /usr/libexec/cups/backend (OS X) for a list of available devices. It is run by
cupsd(8) in response to a CUPS-Get-Devices request. The output format is an IPP response message. The request-id argument is the request ID
from the original IPP request, typically 1. The limit argument is the limit value from the original IPP request - 0 means no limit. The
user-id argument is the requesting-user-name value from the original IPP request. Finally, the options argument is a space-delimited list
of attributes ("name=value name=value ...") that were passed in with the request. Currently cups-deviced looks for the requested-attributes
attribute and tailors the output accordingly.
