38 Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to con‐
39 tain any printable character except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#". Also,
40 printer and class names are not case-sensitive.
41
42 The CUPS versions of accept and reject may ask the user for an access
43 password depending on the printing system configuration. This differs
44 from the System V versions which require the root user to execute these
45 commands.
