-TODO.cups12
-===========
-
-This is a list of features that need to be implemented in KDEPrint for
-KDE4.
-
-Many gaps have opened by the continuing CUPS 1.1.x development already
-(which added quite some new parameters and features), while KDEPrint
-development got dormant in recent years. Plus, even more new gaps by
-the recent CUPS 1.2 release (which added even more new features).
-
-
- ---------------------------
- In General:
- ---------------------------
-* a GUI to configure client.conf is missing [1.1]
-* a GUI to configure snmp.conf is missing [1.2]
-* a GUI to configure subscriptions.conf is missing [1.2]
-
-Other stuff that's new:
-
-- port monitor support [1.2]
-- unique job IDs support [1.2]
-- print a self test page (if driver supports CUPS command file format,
- you can now print the printer's self-test page) [1.2]
-- perform a self-cleaning of print heads (if driver supports CUPS
- command file format, you can now clean print heads) [1.2]
-- per-printer sharing support [1.2]
-- per-printer error policy support [1.2]
-- per-printer operation policy support [1.2]
-- IPP notifications support [1.2]
-- cupsd.conf environment variable support [1.2]
-- driver interfaces support (CUPS 1.2 supports "driver interfaces"
- which allow a driver to advertise the printers it supports and
- automatically generate the PPD file as needed) [1.2]
-- improved error handling support (CUPS 1.2 API provides convenience
- functions to get full error message of last request) [1.2]
-- improved "backchannel" support (CUPS 1.2 API provides backends and
- filters with access to information sent back from a printer) [1.2]
-- globalized PPD support [1.2]
-- custom PPD option support [1.2]
-- extended PPD API support (CUPS 1.2 PPD API got added new functions:
- reading from CUPS files; localization of globalized PPD files;
- emitting of arbitrary ranges of options; custom option support [like
- passwords, passcodes, curves, integers, points, reals and strings];
- enhanced JCL support; and access to all options in a PPD file) [1.2]
-- CUPS ICC profiles support [1.2]
-
-
- --------------------------------
- More specifically:
- --------------------------------
-
-kprinter
---------
-
-* add support for "-U username somebody" (or, in a more IPP-conforming
- syntax: "-o job-originating-username=username").
-
-* add support for multilanguage PPD files
-
-* add support for other CUPS extensions re. PPD parameters; especially
- important is support for handling custom PPD options!
-
-
-kaddprinterwizard
------------------
-
-* add support for IPv6 syntax when specifying or parsing network
- addresses
-
-* add support for new "snmp" backend in CUPS 1.2.
-
- The snmp backend can auto-discover most printer types which are
- attached to the LAN with a NIC. For a sort of introduction to its
- features see http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2138/.
-
- To check it from the commandline, just run it without any parameter:
- "/usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp" (Ubuntu Dapper users have it disabled
- by default; just run "/usr/lib/cups/backend-available/snmp". If you
- have network printers in your LAN, you'll likely see an output like
-
- network ipp://10.162.2.92:631/ipp "Ricoh IPP Printer v2.0" "Ricoh IPP Printer v2.0 10.162.2.92" ""
- network socket://10.162.2.93 "infotec ISC824" "infotec ISC824 10.162.2.93" ""
- network lpd://10.162.2.94/passthru "Canon iR5000-6000" "Canon iR5000-6000 10.162.2.94" ""
-
- kaddprintwizard should be able to parse the CUPS snmp backend's
- output for adding the auto-discovered network printers to the
- local setup.
-
-* add support for the following parameters in printers.conf (which
- where newly added in CUPS 1.2.0):
- - ErrorPolicy
- - OpPolicy
- - Option
- - PortMonitor
- - Shared
- - StateTime
- For information purposes: currently supported parameters are:
- - Accepting
- - AllowUser
- - DenyUser
- - DeviceURI
- - Info
- - JobSheets
- - KLimit
- - Location
- - PageLimit
- - QuotaPeriod
- - State
- - StateMessage
-
-
-
-kaddprinterwizard --kdeconfig
------------------------------
-
-* add support for unix domain socket support (was added in CUPS 1.2.x)
-
- CUPS 1.2 newly introduced the option to communicate via "unix
- domain sockets" for local cases (CUPS client and server on the
- same host [=localhost]. That means, you can now have 2 types of
- "Listen" directives (concurrently):
- Listen localhost:631
- Listen /path/to/domain.sock.name
-
- Support for unix domain socket communication should be added at
- "CUPS Server Settings" --> "Server information".
-
-
-kaddprinterwizard --serverconfig
---------------------------------
-
-* Add support for currently unsupported cupsd.conf 1.1.x parameters.
- All in all 15 unsupported parameters:
- - ConfigFilePerm
- - FaxRetryInterval
- - FaxRetryLimit
- - FileDevice
- - FilterNice
- - Include
- - LimitRequestBody
- - LogFilePerm
- - MaxClientsPerHost
- - MaxCopies
- - PrintcapGUI
- - ReloadTimeout
- - RootCertDuration
- - RunAsUser
- - ServerTokens
-
-* add support for cupsd.conf parameters newly introduced in CUPS 1.2.0.
- Note, "RunAsUser" is no longer supported in CUPS 1.2.x!
- All in all about 18 new parameters (on top of the 15 unsupported ones
- from CUPS 1.1.x):
- - BrowseLDAPBindDN
- - BrowseLDAPDN
- - BrowseLDAPPassword
- - BrowseLDAPServer
- - BrowseLocalOptions
- - BrowseLocalProtocols
- - BrowseRemoteOptions
- - BrowseRemoteProtocols
- - DefaultEncryption
- - DefaultPolicy
- - DefaultShared
- - JobRetryInterval
- - JobRetryLimit
- - PassEnv
- - Policy
- - SetEnv
- - UseNetworkDefault
-
