NAME
       cupsd-helper - cupsd helper programs

SYNOPSIS
       cups-deviced request-id limit user-id options
       cups-driverd cat ppd-name
       cups-driverd list request_id limit options
       cups-exec  sandbox-profile [ -g group-id ] [ -n nice-value ] [ -u user-
       id ] /path/to/program argv0 ...	argvN

DESCRIPTION
       The cupsd-helper programs perform long-running operations on behalf  of
       the  scheduler,	cupsd(8).   The	 cups-deviced helper program runs each
       CUPS backend(7) with no arguments in order to  discover	the  available
       printers.

       The  cups-driverd helper program lists all available printer drivers, a
       subset of "matching" printer drivers, or a copy of  a  specific	driver
       PPD file.

       The  cups-exec  helper  program	runs backends, filters, and other pro‐
       grams. On OS X these programs are run in a secure sandbox.

FILES
       The cups-driverd program looks for PPD and driver information files  in
       the following directories:

	   /Library/Printers
	   /opt/share/ppd
	   /System/Library/Printers
	   /usr/local/share/ppd
	   /usr/share/cups/drv
	   /usr/share/cups/model
	   /usr/share/ppd

       PPD files can be compressed using the gzip(1) program or placed in com‐
       pressed tar(1) archives to further reduce their size.

       Driver information files must conform to the format  defined  in	 ppdc‐
       file(5).
