This is the fifth beta of the CUPS 2.3 series which adopts the new CUPS license, adds support for IPP presets and finishing templates, and fixes a number of bugs and "polish" issues. Changes include:

  • The ipptool program no longer checks for duplicate attributes when running
    in list or CSV mode (Issue #5278)
  • The cupsCreateJob, cupsPrintFile2, and cupsPrintFiles2 APIs did not use
    the supplied HTTP connection (Issue #5288)
  • Fixed another crash in the scheduler when adding an IPP Everywhere printer
    (Issue #5290)
  • Added a workaround for certain web browsers that do not support multiple
    authentication schemes in a single response header (Issue #5289)
  • Fixed policy limits containing the All operation (Issue #5296)
  • The scheduler was always restarted after idle-exit with systemd (Issue #5297)
  • Added a USB quirks rule for the HP LaserJet P1102 (Issue #5310)
  • The mailto notifier did not wait for the welcome message (Issue #5312)
  • Fixed a parsing bug in the pstops filter (Issue #5321)
  • Documentation updates (Issue #5299, Issue #5301, Issue #5306)
  • Localization updates (Issue #5317)
  • The scheduler allowed environment variables to be specified in the
    cupsd.conf file (rdar://37836779, rdar://37836995, rdar://37837252,
    rdar://37837581)
  • Fax queues did not support pause (p) or wait-for-dialtone (w) characters
    (rdar://39212256)
  • The scheduler did not validate notify-recipient-uri values properly
    (rdar://40068936)
  • The IPP parser allowed invalid group tags (rdar://40442124)
  • Fixed a parsing bug in the new authentication code.
