NAME

6       client.conf - client configuration file for cups
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The client.conf file configures the CUPS client and is normally located
10       in the /etc/cups or ~/.cups directory. Each line in the file can  be  a
11       configuration  directive,  a  blank  line,  or a comment. Comment lines
12       start with the # character.
13

DIRECTIVES

15       The following directives are understood by the client. Consult the  on-
16       line help for detailed descriptions:
17
18       Encryption IfRequested
19
20       Encryption Never
21
22       Encryption Required
23            Specifies  the level of encryption that is required for a particu‐
24            lar location.
25
26       GSSServiceName name
27            Specifies the Kerberos service name that is used  for  authentica‐
28            tion,  typically  "host",  "http",  or "ipp". CUPS adds the remote
29            hostname ("name@server.example.com") for you. The default name  is
30            "host".
31
32       ServerName hostname-or-ip-address[:port]
33
34       ServerName /domain/socket
35            Specifies the address and optionally the port to use when connect‐
36            ing to the server. Note: Not supported on OS X 10.7 or later.
37
38       ServerName hostname-or-ip-address[:port]/version=1.1
39            Specifies the address and optionally the port to use when connect‐
40            ing  to  a  server running CUPS 1.3.12 and earlier. Note: Not sup‐
41            ported on OS X 10.7 or later.
42
43       SSLOptions [AllowRC4] [Allow SSL3] [MinTLS1.2]
44            Sets  SSL/TLS  protocol  options  for  encrypted  connections.  By
45            default,  CUPS  only  supports encryption using TLS v1.0 or higher
46            using known secure cipher suites. The AllowRC4 option enables  the
47            128-bit  RC4  cipher  suites,  which  are  required for some older
48            clients that do not implement newer  ones.  The  AllowSSL3  option
49            enables SSL v3.0, which is required for some older clients that do
50            not support TLS v1.0.  The MinTLS1.2 option enforces CUPS  to  use
51            TLS v1.2 and higher.
52
53       User name
54            Specifies the default user name to use for requests.
