DESCRIPTION

12       cupsd  is the scheduler for CUPS. It implements a printing system based
13       upon the Internet Printing Protocol, version 2.1.  If  no  options  are
14       specified  on  the  command-line  then  the  default configuration file
15       /etc/cups/cupsd.conf will be used.
16
