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
     limit 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.
