|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
airprint-generate.py - create Avahi service files for shared CUPS printers
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B airprint-generate.py
|
|
.I [options]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This script will connect to a CUPS server and, for each printer configured and
|
|
marked as shared, it will generate a .service file for Avahi that is compatible
|
|
with Apple's AirPrint announcements. Any printer that can be configured to work
|
|
with CUPS can be used. Printers should not be configured in CUPS as raw, unless
|
|
the printer can natively print PDF; that is, CUPS needs to already be
|
|
configured with a PDF filter.

.SH REMARKS
|
|
DNSSD has a limit of 255 characters for a given txt-record; because of this,
|
|
the list of accepted PDLs will be truncated to fit. If you're curious to see
|
|
which ones are trimmed out of the list, run the script with the verbose flag.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
.I python-lxml
|
|
is installed, .service files will be generated in a human readble format (I
|
|
wasn't able to get minidom's version to work acceptably).
