Leopard vs Tiger CUPS 1.3.1 vs CUPS 1.1.23 • 37% more printers supported in-box • CUPS raster drivers from all printer mfgs • Improved Print dialog, printer discovery and job monitoring • Software Updates for printer drivers 16 Leopard vs Tiger CUPS 1.3.1 vs CUPS 1.1.23 • Printer sharing now uses Bonjour • Support for IPv6 & IPv4 • New tools for driver validation 17 CUPS Open Source CUPS Background • Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides printing services for most operating systems • Uses the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) • Add-on components and developer/user forums on cups.org • Created by me in 1997 while at Easy Software Products • Now owned and maintained by Apple Inc. 19 CUPS Licensing (Unchanged) • Provided under version 2 of the GNU GPL and LGPL, with exceptions for OpenSSL and Apple operating systems – No plans to move to GPL 3 • LGPL applies to the libraries in CUPS – libcups is the “CUPS API” and is used by applications, drivers, and toolkits – libcupsimage is the “CUPS Imaging API” and is used primarily by printer drivers • GPL applies to everything else 20 CUPS Architecture • System process called the “scheduler” manages printers and jobs in the background – /usr/sbin/cupsd – Started on-demand by launchd service – Lightweight, single-threaded application that runs helper programs to do long-term or complex tasks such as printing a document – Runs as the “root” user while most helper programs are run as the “lp” user • Applications communicate with the scheduler using HTTP and IPP 21 CUPS Architecture GNOME Cocoa Application KDE Application Application Cocoa GNOME KDE Core Printing GTK+ Qt CUPS API CUPS API CUPS API CUPS API Scheduler (cupsd) 22 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 • Over 30 new features since CUPS 1.2 • Many performance improvements • 100% binary-compatible with previous releases 23 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 Networking Changes • Kerberos authentication • More authentication mechanisms for local access • SNMP printer discovery – Now disabled by default, changes to probing algorithm • DNS-SD/Bonjour/Zeroconf support – Uses Apple mDNSResponder API, currently for printer sharing only 24 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 Kerberos Authentication • User credentials automatically passed from client to server for shared printing – Currently only supports a single Kerberos realm – Requires recent version of MIT Kerberos or Heimdal • Not enabled by default – Enable with one line in /private/etc/cups/cupsd.conf: DefaultAuthType Negotiate or just use the web interface… 25 What’s New in Leopard Kerberos Authentication • Open http://localhost:631/admin • Check “Use Kerberos authentication” • Click “Change Settings” • See FAQ link for detailed setup instructions 26 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 User Changes • New cupsctl command-line utility – Update cupsd.conf settings without editing it by hand • Web interface improvements – Improved searching in the on-line help – New Internet/WAN printer sharing check box – New “Find Available Printers” button instead of showing available printers on the admin page – “Set Printer Options” now works with classes and raw queues 27 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 User Changes • Localization improvements – Many new languages/locales supported – Backends now localized – Sample driver PPDs now multi-language and generated using the CUPS DDK 28 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 Developer Changes • New Side-channel API – Simple API for both drivers/port monitors and backends – Allows drivers to perform basic device control, synchronization, and status querying – Available functions: soft reset, drain output, get bidirectional support, get status, get device ID • Pre-filter support – New cupsPreFilter attribute in PPD file – Allows drivers to insert a device-specific filter before the standard one, e.g. to see if a PDF file uses color 29 What’s New in CUPS 1.3 Developer Changes • New cupsAdminGetServerSettings() and cupsAdminSetServerSettings() functions • New cupsRemoveDest() and cupsSetDefaultDest() functions • The http_t structure is now completely private 30 CUPS 1.4 Proposed Changes • See roadmap on cups.org • Highlights: – More performance tuning – More printer drivers – Streaming print API – Updated web interface – New PDF filter(s) based on Poppler – New libusb version of USB backend – New banner file format for filter-generated banner pages 31 CUPS 1.4 Proposed Changes • Submit more ideas/patches using the “Bugs & Features” page on cups.org • What do you want to see in CUPS 1.4? 32 CUPS Resources • CUPS web site – http://www.cups.org • CUPS mailing lists – http://lists.easysw.com (All operating systems) – http://lists.apple.com (Mac OS X printing) • CUPS Subversion repository – http://svn.easysw.com 33 Q&A TM and © 2007 Apple Computer, Inc.

  • Cups-Filters-Ippusbxd-2018.Pdf
    cups-filters The non-Apple part of CUPS, maintained by OpenPrinting ippusbxd Standards-conforming support for IPP-over-USB printers Till Kamppeter, OpenPrinting Introduction • cups-filters takes up everything from CUPS which Mac OS X does not need (CUPS 1.6.x) Started end of 2011 by OpenPrinting, overtaking most of CUPS’ filters Switched filters over from PostScript-centric to PDF-centric workflow cups-browsed introduced end of 2012, to introduce browsing of DNS- SD-advertised remote CUPS queues, as CUPS dropped its own broadcasting/browsing • In 7 years of development cups-filters improved a lot Auto-create print queues for IPP network and IPP-over-USB printers, especially driverless printing, not competing with CUPS’ own temporary queues. Mobile printing support: No printer setup tool needed, auto-setup of printers, driverless, cups-browsed auto-shutdown Load-balanced printer clusters, with client-side or server-side queueing of jobs Do legacy CUPS broadcasting/browsing to work with old CUPS on remote machines Filters support Ghostscript, Poppler, and MuPDF as PDF interpreter Filters support all PDLs for driverless printing: PDF, Apple Raster, PWG Raster, and PCLm 2 Role of cups-browsed • CUPS auto-generates its own temporary queues to point to remote IPP/CUPS printers, why continue cups-browsed? Printer clustering (like the former Implicit Classes) . Configurable: Automatic (by equal remote queue names) and manual (by cups-browsed.conf) . Load balancing of clustered queues . Auto-selection of destination printer by job and job settings (planned) Fine-grained filtering of which remote printers are available . Not only servers/IP addresses, but also service names.

  • Ghostscript Status Openprinting Summit April 2011
    Ghostscript Status OpenPrinting summit April 2011 Michael Vrhel, Ph.D. Artifex Software Inc. San Rafael CA Outline Ghostscript overview What is new and what is coming… Color architecture Halftoning Open issues: X11alpha Patterns and transparency Cups color spaces The Basics Ghostscript is a document conversion and rendering engine. Written in C ANSI 1989 standard (ANS X3.159-1989) Essential component of the Linux printing pipeline. Dual GPL/Proprietary licensed. Artifex owns the copyright. Source and documentation available at www.ghostscript.com Graphical Overview PostScript PCL5e/c with PDF 1.7 XPS Level 3 GL/2 and RTL PCLXL Ghostscript Graphics Library High level Printer drivers: Raster output API: Output drivers: Inkjet TIFF Pswrite PDFwrite Laser JPEG XPSwrite Custom etc. CUPS Devices Understanding devices is a major key to understanding ghostscript. Devices can have high-level functionality. e.g. pdfwrite can handle text, images, patterns, shading, fills, strokes and transparency directly. Devices may be set up to handle only certain high-level operations. Graphics library has “default” operations. e.g. text turns into bitmaps, images decomposed into rectangles. In embedded environments, calls into hardware can be made. Raster devices require the graphics library to do all the rendering. Relevant Changes to GS since last meeting…. New ICC color management added (9.0) Free type font rendering as default and new font engine API (9.0) Fixes for several issues with CUPs color spaces (9.01) High speed halftoning using SSE2 commands. (9.02) Upcoming Changes to GS (release 9.03*) Support for anti-aliasing when source contains transparency (in trunk, testing) Support for littleCMS 2.1 (in trunk, testing) Object based color rendering (development started) Support for output rendering intent (development started) Support for proofing profiles, device link profiles and profile override (hopefully) Ghostscript is moving to git….
