NAME

     cups-deviced - cups device daemon

SYNOPSIS

     cups-deviced request-id limit user-id options

DESCRIPTION

     cups-deviced polls the backends in /usr/lib/cups/backend for
     a  list  of  available  devices.   It  is run by cupsd(8) in
     response to a CUPS-Get-Devices request. The output format is
     an  IPP  response  message.  The  request-id argument is the
     request ID from the original IPP request, typically  1.  The
     Ilimit  argument  is  the  limit value from the original IPP
     request - 0 means no limit.  The  user-id  argument  is  the
     requesting-user-name  value  from  the original IPP request.
     Finally, the options argument is a space-delimited  list  of
     attributes ("name=value name=value ...") that were passed in
     with the  request.  Currently  cups-deviced  looks  for  the
     requested-attributes   attribute   and  tailors  the  output
     accordingly.
