DESCRIPTION

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

DIRECTIVES

15       The BrowseAllow directive specifies a system or network to accept  CUPS
16       browse  packets  from. The default is to accept browse packets from all
17       hosts when BrowseRemoteProtocols uses the CUPS protocol.
18
19               BrowseAllow 192.168.7.20
20               BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/24
21               BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0
22
23
24       The BrowsePoll directive polls a server  for  available  printers  once
25       every  60  seconds.  Multiple BrowsePoll directives can be specified to
26       poll multiple servers. The default port to connect to is 631.   Browse‐
27       Poll  works  independently  of  whether  CUPS  browsing is activated in
28       BrowseRemoteProtocols.

32               BrowsePoll host.example.com:631

35       The BrowseLocalProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use  when
36       advertising  local  shared  printers  on  the  network.  The default is
37       "none". Control of advertising of local shared printers using dnssd  is
38       done in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

41               BrowseLocalProtocols CUPS

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

53
54       The BrowseProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when find‐
55       ing  remote shared printers on the network and advertising local shared
56       printers. "dnssd" is ignored for BrowseLocalProtocols. Multiple  proto‐
57       cols  can  be  specified by separating them with spaces. The default is
58       "none" for BrowseLocalProtocols and "dnssd cups" for BrowseRemoteProto‐
59       cols.
