Ubuntu Manpage: cups-browsed.conf - server configuration file for cups-browsed

Provided by: cups-browsed_1.27.4-1ubuntu0.4_amd64

NAME

       cups-browsed.conf - server configuration file for cups-browsed

DESCRIPTION

       The  cups-browsed.conf  file configures the cups-browsed daemon. It is normally located in
       the /etc/cups directory. Each line in the file can be a configuration directive,  a  blank
       line, or a comment. Comment lines start with the # character.

DIRECTIVES

The "CacheDir" directive determines where cups-browsed should save information about the
print queues it had generated when shutting down, like whether one of these queues was the
default printer, or default option settings of the queues.

CacheDir /var/cache/cups

With "LogDir" can be defined where cups-browsed creates its debug log file (if
"DebugLogging file" is set).

LogDir /var/log/cups

The "DebugLogging" directive determines how should debug logging be done. Into the file
/var/log/cups/cups-browsed_log ("file"), to stderr ("stderr"), or not at all ("none").

Note that if cups-browsed is running as a system service (for example via systemd) logging
to stderr makes the log output going to the journal or syslog. Only if you run cups-
browsed from the command line (for development or debugging) it will actually appear on
stderr.

Only browse remote printers (via DNS-SD) from selected servers using the "BrowseAllow",
"BrowseDeny", and "BrowseOrder" directives

This serves for restricting the choice of printers in print dialogs to trusted servers or
to reduce the number of listed printers in the print dialogs to a more user-friendly
amount in large networks with very many shared printers.

This only filters the selection of remote printers for which cups-browsed creates local
queues. If the print dialog uses other mechanisms to list remote printers as for example
direct DNS-SD access, cups-browsed has no influence. cups-browsed also does not prevent
the user from manually accessing non-listed printers.

"BrowseAllow": Accept printers from these hosts or networks. If there are only
"BrowseAllow" lines and no "BrowseOrder" and/or "BrowseDeny" lines, only servers matching
at last one "BrowseAllow" line are accepted.

"BrowseDeny": Deny printers from these hosts or networks. If there are only "BrowseDeny"
lines and no "BrowseOrder" and/or "BrowseAllow" lines, all servers NOT matching any of the
"BrowseDeny" lines are accepted.

"BrowseOrder": Determine the order in which "BrowseAllow" and "BrowseDeny" lines are
applied. With "BrowseOrder Deny,Allow" in the beginning all servers are accepted, then the
"BrowseDeny" lines are applied to exclude unwished servers or networks and after that the
"BrowseAllow" lines to re-include servers or networks. With "BrowseOrder Allow,Deny" we
start with denying all servers, then applying the "BrowseAllow" lines and afterwards the
"BrowseDeny" lines.

Default for "BrowseOrder" is "Deny.Allow" if there are both "BrowseAllow" and "BrowseDeny"
lines.

If there are no "Browse..." lines at all, all servers are accepted.

BrowseAllow All
BrowseAllow 192.168.7.20
BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/24
BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0

BrowseDeny All
BrowseDeny 192.168.1.13
BrowseDeny 192.168.3.0/24
BrowseDeny 192.168.3.0/255.255.255.0

BrowseOrder Deny,Allow
BrowseOrder Allow,Deny

Filtering of remote printers by other properties than IP addresses of their servers

Often the desired selection of printers cannot be reached by only taking into account the
IP addresses of the servers. For these cases there is the BrowseFilter directive to filter
by most of the known properties of the printer.

By default there is no BrowseFilter line meaning that no filtering is applied.

To do filtering one can supply one or more BrowseFilter directives like this:

BrowseFilter [NOT] [EXACT] <FIELD> [<VALUE>]

The BrowseFilter directive always starts with the word "BrowseFilter" and it must at least
contain the name of the data field (<FIELD>) of the printer's properties to which it
should apply.

Available field names are:

name: Name of the local print queue to be created
host: Host name of the remote print server
port: Port through which the printer is accessed on the server
service: DNS/SD service name of the remote printer
domain: Domain of the remote print server

Also all field names in the TXT records of DNS-SD-advertised printers are valid, like
"color", "duplex", "pdl", ... If the field name of the filter rule does not exist for the
printer, the rule is skipped.

The optional <VALUE> field is either the exact value (when the option EXACT is supplied)
or a regular expression (Run "man 7 regex" in a terminal window) to be matched with the
data field.

If no <VALUE> filed is supplied, rules with field names of the TXT record are considered
for boolean matching (true/false) of boolean field (like duplex, which can have the values
"T" for true and "F" for false).

If the option NOT is supplied, the filter rule is fulfilled if the regular expression or
the exact value DOES NOT match the content of the data field. In a boolean rule (without
<VALUE>) the rule matches false.

Regular expressions are always considered case-insensitive and extended POSIX regular
expressions. Field names and options (NOT, EXACT) are all evaluated case-insensitive. If
there is an error in a regular expression, the BrowseFilter line gets ignored.

Especially to note is that supplying any simple string consisting of only letters,
numbers, spaces, and some basic special characters as a regular expression matches if it
is contained somewhere in the data field.

If there is more than one BrowseFilter directive, ALL the directives need to be fulfilled
for the remote printer to be accepted. If one is not fulfilled, the printer will get
ignored.

Examples:

Rules for standard data items which are supplied with any remote printer advertised via
DNS-SD:

Print queue name must contain "hum_res_", this matches "hum_res_mono" or "hum_res_color"
but also "old_hum_res_mono":

BrowseFilter name hum_res_

This matches if the remote host name contains "printserver", like "printserver.local",
"printserver2.example.com", "newprintserver":

BrowseFilter host printserver

This matches all ports with 631 int its number, for example 631, 8631, 10631,...:

BrowseFilter port 631

This rule matches if the DNS-SD service name contains "@ printserver":

Browsefilter service @ printserver

Matches all domains with "local" in their names, not only "local" but also things like
"printlocally.com":

BrowseFilter domain local

Examples for rules applying to items of the TXT record:

This rule selects PostScript printers, as the "PDL" field in the TXT record contains
"postscript" then. This includes also remote CUPS queues which accept PostScript,
independent of whether the physical printer behind the CUPS queue accepts PostScript or
not.

BrowseFilter pdl postscript

Color printers usually contain a "Color" entry set to "T" (for true) in the TXT record.
This rule selects them:

BrowseFilter color

This is a similar rule to select only duplex (automatic double-sided printing) printers:

BrowseFilter duplex

Rules with the NOT option:

This rule EXCLUDES printers from all hosts containing "financial" in their names, nice to
get rid of the 100s of printers of the financial department:

BrowseFilter NOT host financial

Get only monochrome printers ("Color" set to "F", meaning false, in the TXT record):

BrowseFilter NOT color

Rules with more advanced use of regular expressions:

Only queue names which BEGIN WITH "hum_res_" are accepted now, so we still get
"hum_res_mono" or "hum_res_color" but not "old_hum_res_mono" any more:

BrowseFilter name ^hum_res_

Server names is accepted if it contains "print_server" OR "graphics_dep_server":

BrowseFilter host print_server|graphics_dep_server

"printserver1", "printserver2", and "printserver3", nothing else:

BrowseFilter host ^printserver[1-3]$

Printers understanding at least one of PostScript, PCL, or PDF:

BrowseFilter pdl postscript|pcl|pdf

Examples for the EXACT option:

Only printers from "printserver.local" are accepted:

BrowseFilter EXACT host printserver.local

Printers from all servers except "prinserver2.local" are accepted:

BrowseFilter NOT EXACT host prinserver2.local

The BrowsePoll directive polls a server for available printers once every 60 seconds.
Multiple BrowsePoll directives can be specified to poll multiple servers. The default port
to connect to is 631.

BrowsePoll 192.168.7.20
BrowsePoll 192.168.7.65:631
BrowsePoll host.example.com:631

The BrowseLocalProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when advertising local
shared printers on the network. The default is "none". Control of advertising of local
shared printers using dnssd is done by CUPS and configured in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

BrowseLocalProtocols none

The BrowseRemoteProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when finding remote
shared printers on the network. Multiple protocols can be specified by separating them
with spaces. The default is "dnssd".

BrowseRemoteProtocols none
BrowseRemoteProtocols dnssd

The BrowseProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when finding remote shared
printers on the network and advertising local shared printers. Multiple protocols can be
specified by separating them with spaces.

BrowseProtocols none
BrowseProtocols dnssd

The DomainSocket directive specifies the domain socket through which the locally running
CUPS daemon is accessed. If not specified the standard domain socket of CUPS is used. Use
this if you have specified an alternative domain socket for CUPS via a Listen directive in
/etc/cups/cupsd.conf. If cups-browsed is not able to access the local CUPS daemon via a
domain socket it accesses it via localhost. "None" or "Off" lets cups-browsed not use
CUPS' domain socket.

DomainSocket /var/run/cups/cups.sock
DomainSocket None
DomainSocket Off

Set HTTP timeout (in seconds) for requests sent to local/remote resources Note that too
short timeouts can make services getting missed when they are present and operations be
unneccessarily repeated and too long timeouts can make operations take too long when the
server does not respond.

HttpLocalTimeout 5
HttpRemoteTimeout 10

Set how many retries (N) should cups-browsed do for creating print queues for remote
printers which receive timeouts during print queue creation. The printers which are not
successfuly set up even after N retries, are skipped until the next restart of the
service. Note that too many retries can cause high CPU load.

HttpMaxRetries 5

The interval between browsing/broadcasting cycles, local and/or remote, can be adjusted
with the BrowseInterval directive.

BrowseInterval 60

The BrowseTimeout directive determines the amount of time that browsing-related operations
are allowed to take in seconds. Notably, adding or removing one printer queue is
considered as one operation. The timeout applies to each one of those operations.

BrowseTimeout 300

The AllowResharingRemoteCUPSPrinters directive determines whether a print queue pointing
to a remote CUPS queue will be re-shared to the local network or not. Since the queues
generated using the BrowsePoll directive are also pointing to remote queues, they are also
shared automatically if the following option is set. Default is not to share remote
queues.

AllowResharingRemoteCUPSPrinters Yes

The NewBrowsePollQueuesShared directive determines whether a print queue for a newly
discovered printer (discovered by the BrowsePoll directive) will be shared to the local
network or not. This directive will only work if AllowResharingRemoteCUPSPrinters is set
to yes. Default is not to share printers discovered using BrowsePoll.

NewBrowsePollQueuesShared Yes

Set OnlyUnsupportedByCUPS to "Yes" will make cups-browsed not create local queues for
remote printers for which CUPS creates queues by itself. These printers are printers
advertised via DNS-SD and doing CUPS-supported (currently PWG Raster and Apple Raster)
driverless printing, including remote CUPS queues. Queues for other printers (like for
legacy PostScript/PCL printers) are always created (depending on the other configuration
settings of cups-browsed).

With OnlyUnsupportedByCUPS set to "No", cups-browsed creates queues for all printers which
it supports, including printers for which CUPS would create queues by itself. Temporary
queues created by CUPS will get overwritten. This way it is assured that any extra
functionality of cups-browsed will apply to these queues. As queues created by cups-
browsed are permanent CUPS queues this setting is also recommended if applications/print
dialogs which do not support temporary CUPS queues are installed. This setting is the
default.

OnlyUnsupportedByCUPS Yes

With UseCUPSGeneratedPPDs set to "Yes" cups-browsed creates queues for IPP printers with
PPDs generated by the PPD generator of CUPS and not with the one of cups-browsed. So any
new development in CUPS' PPD generator gets available. As CUPS' PPD generator is not
directly accessible, we need to make CUPS generate a temporary print queue with the
desired PPD. Therefore we can only use these PPDs when our queue replaces a temporary CUPS
queue, meaning that the queue is for a printer on which CUPS supports driverless printing
(IPP 2.x, PDLs: PDF, PWG Raster, and/or Apple Raster) and that its name is the same as
CUPS uses for the temporary queue ("LocalQueueNamingIPPPrinter DNS-SD" must be set). The
directive applies only to IPP printers, not to remote CUPS queues, to not break
clustering. Setting this directive to "No" lets cups-browsed generate the PPD file.
Default setting is "No".

UseCUPSGeneratedPPDs No

With the directives LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS and LocalQueueNamingIPPPrinter you can
determine how the names for local queues generated by cups-browsed are generated,
separately for remote CUPS printers and IPP printers.

"DNS-SD" (the default in both cases) bases the naming on the service name of the printer's
advertised DNS-SD record. This is exactly the same naming scheme as CUPS uses for its
temporary queues, so the local queue from cups-browsed prevents CUPS from listing and
creating an additional queue. As DNS-SD service names have to be unique, queue names of
printers from different servers will also be unique and so there is no automatic
clustering for load-balanced printing.

"MakeModel" bases the queue name on the printer's manufacturer and model names. This
scheme cups-browsed used formerly for IPP printers.

"RemoteName" is only available for remote CUPS queues and uses the name of the queue on
the remote CUPS server as the local queue's name. This makes printers on different CUPS
servers with equal queue names automatically forming a load-balancing cluster as CUPS did
formerly (CUPS 1.5.x and older) with CUPS-broadcasted remote printers. This scheme cups-
browsed used formerly for remote CUPS printers.

LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS MakeModel

Set DNSSDBasedDeviceURIs to "Yes" if cups-browsed should use DNS-SD-service-name-based
device URIs for its local queues, as CUPS also does. These queues use the DNS-SD service
name of the discovered printer. With this the URI is independent of network interfaces and
ports, giving reliable connections to always the same physical device. This setting is the
default.

Set DNSSDBasedDeviceURIs to "No" if cups-browsed should use the conventional host-name/IP-
based URIs.

Note that this option has only influence on URIs for printers discovered via DNS-SD, not
via BrowsePoll. Those printers get always assigned the conventional URIs.

DNSSDBasedDeviceURIs Yes

Set IPBasedDeviceURIs to "Yes" if cups-browsed should create its local queues with device
URIs with the IP addresses instead of the host names of the remote servers. This mode is
there for any problems with host name resolution in the network, especially also if avahi-
daemon is only run for printer discovery and already stopped while still printing. By
default this mode is turned off, meaning that we use URIs with host names.

Note that the IP addresses depend on the network interface through which the printer is
accessed. So do not use IP-based URIs on systems with many network interfaces and where
interfaces can appear and disappear frequently.

This mode could also be useful for development and debugging.

If you prefer IPv4 or IPv6 IP addresses in the URIs, you can set IPBasedDeviceURIs to
"IPv4" to only get IPv4 IP addresses or IPBasedDeviceURIs to "IPv6" to only get IPv6 IP
addresses.

IPBasedDeviceURIs No
IPBasedDeviceURIs Yes
IPBasedDeviceURIs IPv4
IPBasedDeviceURIs IPv6

Set CreateRemoteRawPrinterQueues to "Yes" to let cups-browsed also create local queues
pointing to remote raw CUPS queues. Normally, only queues pointing to remote queues with
PPD/driver are created as we do not use drivers on the client side, but in some cases
accessing a remote raw queue can make sense, for example if the queue forwards the jobs by
a special backend like Tea4CUPS.

CreateRemoteRawPrinterQueues Yes

cups-browsed by default creates local print queues for each shared CUPS print queue which
it discovers on remote machines in the local network(s). Set CreateRemoteCUPSPrinterQueues
to "No" if you do not want cups-browsed to do this. For example you can set cups-browsed
to only create queues for IPP network printers setting CreateIPPPrinterQueues not to "No"
and CreateRemoteCUPSPrinterQueues to "No".

CreateRemoteCUPSPrinterQueues No

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "All" to let cups-browsed discover IPP network printers
(native printers, not CUPS queues) with known page description languages (PWG Raster, PDF,
PostScript, PCL XL, PCL 5c/e) in the local network and auto-create print queues for them.

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "Everywhere" to let cups-browsed discover IPP Everywhere
printers in the local network (native printers, not CUPS queues) and auto-create print
queues for them.

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "AppleRaster" to let cups-browsed discover Apple Raster
printers in the local network (native printers, not CUPS queues) and auto-create print
queues for them.

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "Driverless" to let cups-browsed discover printers designed
for driverless use (currently IPP Everywhere and Apple Raster) in the local network
(native printers, not CUPS queues) and auto-create print queues for them.

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "LocalOnly" to auto-create print queues only for local
printers made available as IPP printers. These are for example IPP-over-USB printers, made
available via ippusbxd(8). This is the default.

Set CreateIPPPrinterQueues to "No" to not auto-create print queues for IPP network
printers.

If queues with PPD file are created (see IPPPrinterQueueType directive below) the PPDs are
auto-generated by cups-browsed based on properties of the printer polled via IPP. In case
of missing information, info from the Bonjour record is used asd as last mean default
values.

If queues without PPD (see IPPPrinterQueueType directive below) are created clients have
to IPP-poll the capabilities of the printer and send option settings as standard IPP
attributes. Then we do not poll the capabilities by ourselves to not wake up the printer
from power-saving mode when creating the queues. Jobs have to be sent in one of PDF, PWG
Raster, or JPEG format. Other formats are not accepted.

This functionality is primarily for mobile devices running CUPS to not need a printer
setup tool nor a collection of printer drivers and PPDs.

If cups-browsed is automatically creating print queues for native IPP network printers
("CreateIPPPrinterQueues Yes"), the type of queue to be created can be selected by the
"IPPPrinterQueueType" directive. The "PPD" (default) setting makes queues with PPD file
being created. With "Interface" or "NoPPD" the queue is created with a System V interface
script (Not supported with CUPS 2.2.x or later). "Auto" is for backward compatibility and
also lets queues with PPD get created.

IPPPrinterQueueType PPD
IPPPrinterQueueType NoPPD

IPPPrinterQueueType Auto

The NewIPPPrinterQueuesShared directive determines whether a print queue for a newly
discovered IPP network printer (not remote CUPS queue) will be shared to the local network
or not. This is only valid for newly discovered printers. For printers discovered in an
earlier cups-browsed session, cups-browsed will remember whether the printer was shared,
so changes by the user get conserved. Default is not to share newly discovered IPP
printers.

NewIPPPrinterQueuesShared Yes

If there is more than one remote CUPS printer whose local queue would get the same name
and AutoClustering is set to "Yes" (the default) only one local queue is created which
makes up a load-balancing cluster of the remote printers which would get this queue name
(implicit class). This means that when several jobs are sent to this queue they get
distributed between the printers, using the method chosen by the LoadBalancing directive.

Note that the forming of clusters depends on the naming scheme for local queues created by
cups-browsed. If you have set LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS to "DNSSD" you will not get
automatic clustering as the DNS-SD service names are always unique. With
LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS set to "RemoteName" local queues are named as the CUPS queues
on the remote servers are named and so equally named queues on different servers get
clustered (this is how CUPS did it in version 1.5.x or older). LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS
set to "MakeModel" makes remote printers of the same model get clustered. Note that then a
cluster can contain more than one queue of the same server.

With AutoClustering set to "No", for each remote CUPS printer an individual local queue is
created, and to avoid name clashes when using the LocalQueueNamingRemoteCUPS settings
"RemoteName" or "MakeModel" "@<server name>" is added to the local queue name.

Only remote CUPS printers get clustered, not IPP network printers or IPP-over-USB
printers.

AutoClustering Yes
AutoClustering No

Load-balancing printer cluster formation can also be manually controlled by defining
explicitly which remote CUPS printers should get clustered together.

This is done by the "Cluster" directive:

Cluster <QUEUENAME>: <EXPRESSION1> <EXPRESSION2> ...
Cluster <QUEUENAME>

If no expressions are given, <QUEUENAME> is used as the first and only expression for this
cluster.

Discovered printers are matched against all the expressions of all defined clusters. The
first expression which matches the discovered printer determines to which cluster it
belongs. Note that this way a printer can only belong to one cluster. Once matched,
further cluster definitions will not checked any more.

With the first printer matching a cluster's expression a local queue with the name
<QUEUENAME> is created. If more printers are discovered and match this cluster, they join
the cluster. Printing to this queue prints to all these printers in a load-balancing
manner, according to to the setting of the LoadBalancing directive.

Each expression must be a string of characters without spaces. If spaces are needed,
replace them by underscores ('_').

An expression can be matched in three ways:

1. By the name of the CUPS queue on the remote server
2. By make and model name of the remote printer
3. By the DNS-SD service name of the remote printer

Note that the matching is done case-insensitively and any group of non-alphanumerical
characters is replaced by a single underscore.

So if an expression is "HP_DeskJet_2540" and the remote server reports "hp Deskjet-2540"
the printer gets matched to this cluster.

If "AutoClustering" is not set to "No" both your manual cluster definitions will be
followed and automatic clustering of equally-named remote queues will be performed. If a
printer matches in both categories the match to the manually defined cluster has priority.
Automatic clustering of equally-named remote printers is not performed if there is a
manually defined cluster with this name (at least as the printers do not match this
cluster).

Examples:

To cluster all remote CUPS queues named "laserprinter" in your local network but not
cluster any other equally-named remote CUPS printers use (Local queue will get named
"laserprinter"):

AutoClustering No
Cluster laserprinter

To cluster all remote CUPS queues of HP LaserJet 4050 printers in a local queue named
"LJ4050":

Cluster LJ4050: HP_LaserJet_4050

As DNS-SD service names are unique in a network you can create a cluster from exactly
specified printers (spaces replaced by underscors):

Cluster hrdep: oldlaser_@_hr-server1 newlaser_@_hr-server2

The LoadBalancing directive switches between two methods of handling load balancing
between equally-named remote queues which are represented by one local print queue making
up a cluster of them (implicit class).

The two methods are:

Queuing of jobs on the client (LoadBalancing QueueOnClient):

Here we queue up the jobs on the client and regularly check the clustered remote print
queues. If we find an idle queue, we pass on a job to it.

This is also the method which CUPS uses for classes. Advantage is a more even distribution
of the job workload on the servers (especially if the printing speed of the servers is
very different), and if a server fails, there are not several jobs stuck or lost.
Disadvantage is that if one takes the client (laptop, mobile phone, ...) out of the local
network, printing stops with the jobs waiting in the local queue.

Queuing of jobs on the servers (LoadBalancing QueueOnServers):

Here we check the number of jobs on each of the clustered remote printers and send an
incoming job immediately to the remote printer with the lowest amount of jobs in its
queue. This way no jobs queue up locally, all jobs which are waiting are waiting on one of
the remote servers.

Not having jobs waiting locally has the advantage that we can take the local machine from
the network and all jobs get printed. Disadvantage is that if a server with a full queue
of jobs goes away, the jobs go away, too.

Default is queuing the jobs on the client as this is what CUPS does with classes.

LoadBalancing QueueOnClient
LoadBalancing QueueOnServers

With the DefaultOptions directive one or more option settings can be defined to be applied
to every print queue newly created by cups-browsed. Each option is supplied as one
supplies options with the "-o" command line argument to the "lpadmin" command (Run "man
lpadmin" for more details). More than one option can be supplied separating the options by
spaces. By default no option settings are pre-defined.

Note that print queues which cups-browsed already created before remember their previous
settings and so these settings do not get applied.

DefaultOptions Option1=Value1 Option2=Value2 Option3 noOption4

The AutoShutdown directive specifies whether cups-browsed should automatically terminate
when it has no local raw queues set up pointing to any discovered remote printers or no
jobs on such queues depending on AutoShutdownOn setting (auto shutdown mode). Setting it
to "On" activates the auto-shutdown mode, setting it to "Off" deactivates it (the
default). The special mode "avahi" turns auto shutdown off while avahi-daemon is running
and on when avahi-daemon stops. This allows running cups-browsed on-demand when avahi-
daemon is run on-demand.

AutoShutdown Off
AutoShutdown On
AutoShutdown avahi

The AutoShutdownOn directive determines what event cups-browsed considers as inactivity in
auto shutdown mode. "NoQueues" (the default) means that auto shutdown is initiated when
there are no queues for discovered remote printers generated by cups-browsed any more.
"NoJobs" means that all queues generated by cups-browsed are without jobs.

AutoShutdownOn NoQueues
AutoShutdownOn NoJobs

The AutoShutdownTimeout directive specifies after how many seconds without local raw
queues set up pointing to any discovered remote printers or jobs on these queues cups-
browsed should actually shut down in auto shutdown mode. Default is 30 seconds, 0 means
immediate shutdown.

AutoShutdownTimeout 20
