CUPS provides the "cups" library to talk to the different parts of CUPS and with Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) printers. The "cups" library functions are accessed by including the <cups/cups.h> header.
CUPS is based on the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP"), which allows clients (applications) to communicate with a server (the scheduler, printers, etc.) to get a list of destinations, send print jobs, and so forth. You identify which server you want to communicate with using a pointer to the opaque structure http_t. The CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT constant can be used when you want to talk to the CUPS scheduler.
When writing software (other than printer drivers) that uses the "cups" library:
Do not use undocumented or deprecated APIs,
Do not rely on pre-configured printers,
Do not assume that printers support specific features or formats, and
Do not rely on implementation details (PPDs, etc.)
CUPS is designed to insulate users and developers from the implementation details of printers and file formats. The goal is to allow an application to supply a print file in a standard format with the user intent ("print four copies, two-sided on A4 media, and staple each copy") and have the printing system manage the printer communication and format conversion needed.
Similarly, printer and job management applications can use standard query operations to obtain the status information in a common, generic form and use standard management operations to control the state of those printers and jobs.
Note:
CUPS printer drivers necessarily depend on specific file formats and certain implementation details of the CUPS software. Please consult the Postscript and raster printer driver developer documentation on the OpenPrinting CUPS web site for more information.
A Destination is a printer or print queue that accepts print jobs. A Print Job is a collection of one or more documents that are processed by a destination using options supplied when creating the job. A Document is a file (JPEG image, PDF file, etc.) suitable for printing. An Option controls some aspect of printing, such as the media used. Media is the sheets or roll that is printed on. An Attribute is an option encoded for an Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) request.
The CUPS libraries can be used from any C, C++, or Objective C program. The method of compiling against the libraries varies depending on the operating system and installation of CUPS. The following sections show how to compile a simple program (shown below) in two common environments.
The following simple program lists the available destinations:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cups/cups.h>
int print_dest(void *user_data, unsigned flags, cups_dest_t *dest)
{
if (dest->instance)
printf("%s/%s\n", dest->name, dest->instance);
else
puts(dest->name);
return (1);
}
int main(void)
{
cupsEnumDests(CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_NONE, 1000, NULL, 0, 0, print_dest, NULL);
return (0);
}
In Xcode, choose New Project... from the File menu (or press SHIFT+CMD+N), then select the Command Line Tool under the macOS Application project type. Click Next and enter a name for the project, for example "firstcups". Click Next and choose a project directory. The click Next to create the project.
In the project window, click on the Build Phases group and expand the Link Binary with Libraries section. Click +, type "libcups" to show the library, and then double-click on libcups.tbd.
Finally, click on the main.c file in the sidebar and copy the example program to the file. Build and run (CMD+R) to see the list of destinations.
From the command-line, create a file called simple.c using your favorite editor, copy the example to this file, and save. Then run the following command to compile it with GCC and run it:
gcc -o simple `cups-config --cflags` simple.c `cups-config --libs`
./simple
The cups-config command provides the compiler flags (cups-config --cflags) and libraries (cups-config --libs) needed for the local system.
Destinations, which in CUPS represent individual printers or classes (collections or pools) of printers, are represented by the cups_dest_t structure which includes the name (name), instance (instance, saved options/settings), whether the destination is the default for the user (is_default), and the options and basic information associated with that destination (num_options and options).
Historically destinations have been manually maintained by the administrator of a system or network, but CUPS also supports dynamic discovery of destinations on the current network.
The cupsEnumDests function finds all of the available destinations:
int
cupsEnumDests(unsigned flags, int msec, int *cancel,
cups_ptype_t type, cups_ptype_t mask,
cups_dest_cb_t cb, void *user_data)
The flags argument specifies enumeration options, which at present must be CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_NONE.
The msec argument specifies the maximum amount of time that should be used for enumeration in milliseconds - interactive applications should keep this value to 5000 or less when run on the main thread.
The cancel argument points to an integer variable that, when set to a non-zero value, will cause enumeration to stop as soon as possible. It can be NULL if not needed.
The type and mask arguments are bitfields that allow the caller to filter the destinations based on categories and/or capabilities. The destination's "printer-type" value is masked by the mask value and compared to the type value when filtering. For example, to only enumerate destinations that are hosted on the local system, pass CUPS_PRINTER_LOCAL for the type argument and CUPS_PRINTER_DISCOVERED for the mask argument. The following constants can be used for filtering:
CUPS_PRINTER_CLASS: A collection of destinations.
CUPS_PRINTER_FAX: A facsimile device.
CUPS_PRINTER_LOCAL: A local printer or class. This constant has the value 0 (no bits set) and is only used for the type argument and is paired with the CUPS_PRINTER_REMOTE or CUPS_PRINTER_DISCOVERED constant passed in the mask argument.
CUPS_PRINTER_REMOTE: A remote (shared) printer or class.
CUPS_PRINTER_DISCOVERED: An available network printer or class.
CUPS_PRINTER_BW: Can do B&W printing.
CUPS_PRINTER_COLOR: Can do color printing.
CUPS_PRINTER_DUPLEX: Can do two-sided printing.
CUPS_PRINTER_STAPLE: Can staple output.
CUPS_PRINTER_COLLATE: Can quickly collate copies.
CUPS_PRINTER_PUNCH: Can punch output.
CUPS_PRINTER_COVER: Can cover output.
CUPS_PRINTER_BIND: Can bind output.
CUPS_PRINTER_SORT: Can sort output (mailboxes, etc.)
CUPS_PRINTER_SMALL: Can print on Letter/Legal/A4-size media.
CUPS_PRINTER_MEDIUM: Can print on Tabloid/B/C/A3/A2-size media.
CUPS_PRINTER_LARGE: Can print on D/E/A1/A0-size media.
CUPS_PRINTER_VARIABLE: Can print on rolls and custom-size media.
The cb argument specifies a function to call for every destination that is found:
typedef int (*cups_dest_cb_t)(void *user_data,
unsigned flags,
cups_dest_t *dest);
The callback function receives a copy of the user_data argument along with a bitfield (flags) and the destination that was found. The flags argument can have any of the following constant (bit) values set:
CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_MORE: There are more destinations coming.
CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_REMOVED: The destination has gone away and should be removed from the list of destinations a user can select.
CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_ERROR: An error occurred. The reason for the error can be found by calling the cupsLastError and/or cupsLastErrorString functions.
The callback function returns 0 to stop enumeration or 1 to continue.
Note:
The callback function will likely be called multiple times for the same destination, so it is up to the caller to suppress any duplicate destinations.
The following example shows how to use cupsEnumDests to get a filtered array of destinations:
typedef struct
{
int num_dests;
cups_dest_t *dests;
} my_user_data_t;
int
my_dest_cb(my_user_data_t *user_data, unsigned flags,
cups_dest_t *dest)
{
if (flags & CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_REMOVED)
{
/*
* Remove destination from array...
*/
user_data->num_dests =
cupsRemoveDest(dest->name, dest->instance,
user_data->num_dests,
&(user_data->dests));
}
else
{
/*
* Add destination to array...
*/
user_data->num_dests =
cupsCopyDest(dest, user_data->num_dests,
&(user_data->dests));
}
return (1);
}
int
my_get_dests(cups_ptype_t type, cups_ptype_t mask,
cups_dest_t **dests)
{
my_user_data_t user_data = { 0, NULL };
if (!cupsEnumDests(CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_NONE, 1000, NULL, type,
mask, (cups_dest_cb_t)my_dest_cb,
&user_data))
{
/*
* An error occurred, free all of the destinations and
* return...
*/
cupsFreeDests(user_data.num_dests, user_data.dests);
*dests = NULL;
return (0);
}
/*
* Return the destination array...
*/
*dests = user_data.dests;
return (user_data.num_dests);
}
The num_options and options members of the cups_dest_t structure provide basic attributes about the destination in addition to the user default options and values for that destination. The following names are predefined for various destination attributes:
"auth-info-required": The type of authentication required for printing to this destination: "none", "username,password", "domain,username,password", or "negotiate" (Kerberos).
"printer-info": The human-readable description of the destination such as "My Laser Printer".
"printer-is-accepting-jobs": "true" if the destination is accepting new jobs, "false" otherwise.
"printer-is-shared": "true" if the destination is being shared with other computers, "false" otherwise.
"printer-location": The human-readable location of the destination such as "Lab 4".
"printer-make-and-model": The human-readable make and model of the destination such as "ExampleCorp LaserPrinter 4000 Series".
"printer-state": "3" if the destination is idle, "4" if the destination is printing a job, and "5" if the destination is stopped.
"printer-state-change-time": The UNIX time when the destination entered the current state.
"printer-state-reasons": Additional comma-delimited state keywords for the destination such as "media-tray-empty-error" and "toner-low-warning".
"printer-type": The cups_ptype_t value associated with the destination.
"printer-uri-supported": The URI associated with the destination; if not set, this destination was discovered but is not yet setup as a local printer.
Use the cupsGetOption function to retrieve the value. For example, the following code gets the make and model of a destination:
const char *model = cupsGetOption("printer-make-and-model",
dest->num_options,
dest->options);
Once a destination has been chosen, the cupsCopyDestInfo function can be used to gather detailed information about the destination:
cups_dinfo_t *
cupsCopyDestInfo(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest);
The http argument specifies a connection to the CUPS scheduler and is typically the constant CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT. The dest argument specifies the destination to query.
The cups_dinfo_t structure that is returned contains a snapshot of the supported options and their supported, ready, and default values. It also can report constraints between different options and values, and recommend changes to resolve those constraints.
The cupsCheckDestSupported function can be used to test whether a particular option or option and value is supported:
int
cupsCheckDestSupported(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info,
const char *option,
const char *value);
The option argument specifies the name of the option to check. The following constants can be used to check the various standard options:
CUPS_COPIES: Controls the number of copies that are produced.
CUPS_FINISHINGS: A comma-delimited list of integer constants that control the finishing processes that are applied to the job, including stapling, punching, and folding.
CUPS_MEDIA: Controls the media size that is used, typically one of the following: CUPS_MEDIA_3X5, CUPS_MEDIA_4X6, CUPS_MEDIA_5X7, CUPS_MEDIA_8X10, CUPS_MEDIA_A3, CUPS_MEDIA_A4, CUPS_MEDIA_A5, CUPS_MEDIA_A6, CUPS_MEDIA_ENV10, CUPS_MEDIA_ENVDL, CUPS_MEDIA_LEGAL, CUPS_MEDIA_LETTER, CUPS_MEDIA_PHOTO_L, CUPS_MEDIA_SUPERBA3, or CUPS_MEDIA_TABLOID.
CUPS_MEDIA_SOURCE: Controls where the media is pulled from, typically either CUPS_MEDIA_SOURCE_AUTO or CUPS_MEDIA_SOURCE_MANUAL.
CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE: Controls the type of media that is used, typically one of the following: CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_AUTO, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_ENVELOPE, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_LABELS, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_LETTERHEAD, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO_GLOSSY, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO_MATTE, CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_PLAIN, or CUPS_MEDIA_TYPE_TRANSPARENCY.
CUPS_NUMBER_UP: Controls the number of document pages that are placed on each media side.
CUPS_ORIENTATION: Controls the orientation of document pages placed on the media: CUPS_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT or CUPS_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE.
CUPS_PRINT_COLOR_MODE: Controls whether the output is in color (CUPS_PRINT_COLOR_MODE_COLOR), grayscale (CUPS_PRINT_COLOR_MODE_MONOCHROME), or either (CUPS_PRINT_COLOR_MODE_AUTO).
CUPS_PRINT_QUALITY: Controls the generate quality of the output: CUPS_PRINT_QUALITY_DRAFT, CUPS_PRINT_QUALITY_NORMAL, or CUPS_PRINT_QUALITY_HIGH.
CUPS_SIDES: Controls whether prints are placed on one or both sides of the media: CUPS_SIDES_ONE_SIDED, CUPS_SIDES_TWO_SIDED_PORTRAIT, or CUPS_SIDES_TWO_SIDED_LANDSCAPE.
If the value argument is NULL, the cupsCheckDestSupported function returns whether the option is supported by the destination. Otherwise, the function returns whether the specified value of the option is supported.
The cupsFindDestSupported function returns the IPP attribute containing the supported values for a given option:
ipp_attribute_t *
cupsFindDestSupported(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo,
const char *option);
For example, the following code prints the supported finishing processes for a destination, if any, to the standard output:
cups_dinfo_t *info = cupsCopyDestInfo(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT,
dest);
if (cupsCheckDestSupported(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
CUPS_FINISHINGS, NULL))
{
ipp_attribute_t *finishings =
cupsFindDestSupported(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
CUPS_FINISHINGS);
int i, count = ippGetCount(finishings);
puts("finishings supported:");
for (i = 0; i < count; i ++)
printf(" %d\n", ippGetInteger(finishings, i));
}
else
puts("finishings not supported.");
The "job-creation-attributes" option can be queried to get a list of supported options. For example, the following code prints the list of supported options to the standard output:
ipp_attribute_t *attrs =
cupsFindDestSupported(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
"job-creation-attributes");
int i, count = ippGetCount(attrs);
for (i = 0; i < count; i ++)
puts(ippGetString(attrs, i, NULL));
There are two sets of default values - user defaults that are available via the num_options and options members of the cups_dest_t structure, and destination defaults that available via the cups_dinfo_t structure and the cupsFindDestDefault function which returns the IPP attribute containing the default value(s) for a given option:
ipp_attribute_t *
cupsFindDestDefault(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo,
const char *option);
The user defaults from cupsGetOption should always take preference over the destination defaults. For example, the following code prints the default finishings value(s) to the standard output:
const char *def_value =
cupsGetOption(CUPS_FINISHINGS, dest->num_options,
dest->options);
ipp_attribute_t *def_attr =
cupsFindDestDefault(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
CUPS_FINISHINGS);
if (def_value != NULL)
{
printf("Default finishings: %s\n", def_value);
}
else
{
int i, count = ippGetCount(def_attr);
printf("Default finishings: %d",
ippGetInteger(def_attr, 0));
for (i = 1; i < count; i ++)
printf(",%d", ippGetInteger(def_attr, i));
putchar('\n');
}
The finishings and media options also support queries for the ready, or loaded, values. For example, a printer may have punch and staple finishers installed but be out of staples - the supported values will list both punch and staple finishing processes but the ready values will only list the punch processes. Similarly, a printer may support hundreds of different sizes of media but only have a single size loaded at any given time - the ready values are limited to the media that is actually in the printer.
The cupsFindDestReady function finds the IPP attribute containing the ready values for a given option:
ipp_attribute_t *
cupsFindDestReady(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo, const char *option);
For example, the following code lists the ready finishing processes:
ipp_attribute_t *ready_finishings =
cupsFindDestReady(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
CUPS_FINISHINGS);
if (ready_finishings != NULL)
{
int i, count = ippGetCount(ready_finishings);
puts("finishings ready:");
for (i = 0; i < count; i ++)
printf(" %d\n", ippGetInteger(ready_finishings, i));
}
else
puts("no finishings are ready.");
CUPS provides functions for querying the dimensions and margins for each of the supported media size options. The cups_size_t structure is used to describe a media size:
typedef struct cups_size_s
{
char media[128];
int width, length;
int bottom, left, right, top;
} cups_size_t;
The width and length members specify the dimensions of the media in hundredths of millimeters (1/2540th of an inch). The bottom, left, right, and top members specify the margins of the printable area, also in hundredths of millimeters.
The cupsGetDestMediaByName and cupsGetDestMediaBySize functions lookup the media size information using a standard media size name or dimensions in hundredths of millimeters:
int
cupsGetDestMediaByName(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo,
const char *media,
unsigned flags, cups_size_t *size);
int
cupsGetDestMediaBySize(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo,
int width, int length,
unsigned flags, cups_size_t *size);
The media, width, and length arguments specify the size to lookup. The flags argument specifies a bitfield controlling various lookup options:
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_DEFAULT: Find the closest size supported by the printer.
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_BORDERLESS: Find a borderless size.
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_DUPLEX: Find a size compatible with two-sided printing.
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_EXACT: Find an exact match for the size.
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_READY: If the printer supports media sensing or configuration of the media in each tray/source, find the size amongst the "ready" media.
If a matching size is found for the destination, the size information is stored in the structure pointed to by the size argument and 1 is returned. Otherwise 0 is returned.
For example, the following code prints the margins for two-sided printing on US Letter media:
cups_size_t size;
if (cupsGetDestMediaByName(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
CUPS_MEDIA_LETTER,
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_DUPLEX, &size))
{
puts("Margins for duplex US Letter:");
printf(" Bottom: %.2fin\n", size.bottom / 2540.0);
printf(" Left: %.2fin\n", size.left / 2540.0);
printf(" Right: %.2fin\n", size.right / 2540.0);
printf(" Top: %.2fin\n", size.top / 2540.0);
}
else
puts("Margins for duplex US Letter are not available.");
You can also enumerate all of the sizes that match a given flags value using the cupsGetDestMediaByIndex and cupsGetDestMediaCount functions:
int
cupsGetDestMediaByIndex(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo, int n,
unsigned flags, cups_size_t *size);
int
cupsGetDestMediaCount(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo, unsigned flags);
For example, the following code prints the list of ready media and corresponding margins:
cups_size_t size;
int i;
int count = cupsGetDestMediaCount(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT,
dest, info,
CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_READY);
for (i = 0; i < count; i ++)
{
if (cupsGetDestMediaByIndex(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
i, CUPS_MEDIA_FLAGS_READY,
&size))
{
printf("%s:\n", size.name);
printf(" Width: %.2fin\n", size.width / 2540.0);
printf(" Length: %.2fin\n", size.length / 2540.0);
printf(" Bottom: %.2fin\n", size.bottom / 2540.0);
printf(" Left: %.2fin\n", size.left / 2540.0);
printf(" Right: %.2fin\n", size.right / 2540.0);
printf(" Top: %.2fin\n", size.top / 2540.0);
}
}
Finally, the cupsGetDestMediaDefault function returns the default media size:
int
cupsGetDestMediaDefault(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *dinfo, unsigned flags,
cups_size_t *size);
CUPS provides three functions to get localized, human-readable strings in the user's current locale for options and values: cupsLocalizeDestMedia, cupsLocalizeDestOption, and cupsLocalizeDestValue:
const char *
cupsLocalizeDestMedia(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info, unsigned flags,
cups_size_t *size);
const char *
cupsLocalizeDestOption(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info,
const char *option);
const char *
cupsLocalizeDestValue(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info,
const char *option, const char *value);
Once you are ready to submit a print job, you create a job using the cupsCreateDestJob function:
ipp_status_t
cupsCreateDestJob(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info, int *job_id,
const char *title, int num_options,
cups_option_t *options);
The title argument specifies a name for the print job such as "My Document". The num_options and options arguments specify the options for the print job which are allocated using the cupsAddOption function.
When successful, the job's numeric identifier is stored in the integer pointed to by the job_id argument and IPP_STATUS_OK is returned. Otherwise, an IPP error status is returned.
For example, the following code creates a new job that will print 42 copies of a two-sided US Letter document:
int job_id = 0;
int num_options = 0;
cups_option_t *options = NULL;
num_options = cupsAddOption(CUPS_COPIES, "42",
num_options, &options);
num_options = cupsAddOption(CUPS_MEDIA, CUPS_MEDIA_LETTER,
num_options, &options);
num_options = cupsAddOption(CUPS_SIDES,
CUPS_SIDES_TWO_SIDED_PORTRAIT,
num_options, &options);
if (cupsCreateDestJob(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
&job_id, "My Document", num_options,
options) == IPP_STATUS_OK)
printf("Created job: %d\n", job_id);
else
printf("Unable to create job: %s\n",
cupsLastErrorString());
Once the job is created, you submit documents for the job using the cupsStartDestDocument, cupsWriteRequestData, and cupsFinishDestDocument functions:
http_status_t
cupsStartDestDocument(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info, int job_id,
const char *docname,
const char *format,
int num_options,
cups_option_t *options,
int last_document);
http_status_t
cupsWriteRequestData(http_t *http, const char *buffer,
size_t length);
ipp_status_t
cupsFinishDestDocument(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest,
cups_dinfo_t *info);
The docname argument specifies the name of the document, typically the original filename. The format argument specifies the MIME media type of the document, including the following constants:
CUPS_FORMAT_JPEG: "image/jpeg"
CUPS_FORMAT_PDF: "application/pdf"
CUPS_FORMAT_POSTSCRIPT: "application/postscript"
CUPS_FORMAT_TEXT: "text/plain"
The num_options and options arguments specify per-document print options, which at present must be 0 and NULL. The last_document argument specifies whether this is the last document in the job.
For example, the following code submits a PDF file to the job that was just created:
FILE *fp = fopen("filename.pdf", "rb");
size_t bytes;
char buffer[65536];
if (cupsStartDestDocument(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest, info,
job_id, "filename.pdf", 0, NULL,
1) == HTTP_STATUS_CONTINUE)
{
while ((bytes = fread(buffer, 1, sizeof(buffer), fp)) > 0)
if (cupsWriteRequestData(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, buffer,
bytes) != HTTP_STATUS_CONTINUE)
break;
if (cupsFinishDestDocument(CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, dest,
info) == IPP_STATUS_OK)
puts("Document send succeeded.");
else
printf("Document send failed: %s\n",
cupsLastErrorString());
}
fclose(fp);
CUPS provides a rich API for sending IPP requests to the scheduler or printers, typically from management or utility applications whose primary purpose is not to send print jobs.
The connection to the scheduler or printer is represented by the HTTP connection type http_t. The cupsConnectDest function connects to the scheduler or printer associated with the destination:
http_t *
cupsConnectDest(cups_dest_t *dest, unsigned flags, int msec,
int *cancel, char *resource,
size_t resourcesize, cups_dest_cb_t cb,
void *user_data);
The dest argument specifies the destination to connect to.
The flags argument specifies whether you want to connect to the scheduler (CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_NONE) or device/printer (CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_DEVICE) associated with the destination.
The msec argument specifies how long you are willing to wait for the connection to be established in milliseconds. Specify a value of -1 to wait indefinitely.
The cancel argument specifies the address of an integer variable that can be set to a non-zero value to cancel the connection. Specify a value of NULL to not provide a cancel variable.
The resource and resourcesize arguments specify the address and size of a character string array to hold the path to use when sending an IPP request.
The cb and user_data arguments specify a destination callback function that returns 1 to continue connecting or 0 to stop. The destination callback work the same way as the one used for the cupsEnumDests function.
On success, a HTTP connection is returned that can be used to send IPP requests and get IPP responses.
For example, the following code connects to the printer associated with a destination with a 30 second timeout:
char resource[256];
http_t *http = cupsConnectDest(dest, CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_DEVICE,
30000, NULL, resource,
sizeof(resource), NULL, NULL);
IPP requests are represented by the IPP message type ipp_t and each IPP attribute in the request is representing using the type ipp_attribute_t. Each IPP request includes an operation code (IPP_OP_CREATE_JOB, IPP_OP_GET_PRINTER_ATTRIBUTES, etc.) and a 32-bit integer identifier.
The ippNewRequest function creates a new IPP request:
ipp_t *
ippNewRequest(ipp_op_t op);
The op argument specifies the IPP operation code for the request. For example, the following code creates an IPP Get-Printer-Attributes request:
ipp_t *request = ippNewRequest(IPP_OP_GET_PRINTER_ATTRIBUTES);
The request identifier is automatically set to a unique value for the current process.
Each IPP request starts with two IPP attributes, "attributes-charset" and "attributes-natural-language", followed by IPP attribute(s) that specify the target of the operation. The ippNewRequest automatically adds the correct "attributes-charset" and "attributes-natural-language" attributes, but you must add the target attribute(s). For example, the following code adds the "printer-uri" attribute to the IPP Get-Printer-Attributes request to specify which printer is being queried:
const char *printer_uri = cupsGetOption("device-uri",
dest->num_options,
dest->options);
ippAddString(request, IPP_TAG_OPERATION, IPP_TAG_URI,
"printer-uri", NULL, printer_uri);
Note:
If we wanted to query the scheduler instead of the device, we would look up the "printer-uri-supported" option instead of the "device-uri" value.
The ippAddString function adds the "printer-uri" attribute the the IPP request. The IPP_TAG_OPERATION argument specifies that the attribute is part of the operation. The IPP_TAG_URI argument specifies that the value is a Universal Resource Identifier (URI) string. The NULL argument specifies there is no language (English, French, Japanese, etc.) associated with the string, and the printer_uri argument specifies the string value.
The IPP Get-Printer-Attributes request also supports an IPP attribute called "requested-attributes" that lists the attributes and values you are interested in. For example, the following code requests the printer state attributes:
static const char * const requested_attributes[] =
{
"printer-state",
"printer-state-message",
"printer-state-reasons"
};
ippAddStrings(request, IPP_TAG_OPERATION, IPP_TAG_KEYWORD,
"requested-attributes", 3, NULL,
requested_attributes);
The ippAddStrings function adds an attribute with one or more strings, in this case three. The IPP_TAG_KEYWORD argument specifies that the strings are keyword values, which are used for attribute names. All strings use the same language (NULL), and the attribute will contain the three strings in the array requested_attributes.
CUPS provides many functions to adding attributes of different types:
ippAddBoolean adds a boolean (IPP_TAG_BOOLEAN) attribute with one value.
ippAddInteger adds an enum (IPP_TAG_ENUM) or integer (IPP_TAG_INTEGER) attribute with one value.
ippAddIntegers adds an enum or integer attribute with one or more values.
ippAddOctetString adds an octetString attribute with one value.
ippAddOutOfBand adds a admin-defined (IPP_TAG_ADMINDEFINE), default (IPP_TAG_DEFAULT), delete-attribute (IPP_TAG_DELETEATTR), no-value (IPP_TAG_NOVALUE), not-settable (IPP_TAG_NOTSETTABLE), unknown (IPP_TAG_UNKNOWN), or unsupported (IPP_TAG_UNSUPPORTED_VALUE) out-of-band attribute.
ippAddRange adds a rangeOfInteger attribute with one range.
ippAddRanges adds a rangeOfInteger attribute with one or more ranges.
ippAddResolution adds a resolution attribute with one resolution.
ippAddResolutions adds a resolution attribute with one or more resolutions.
ippAddString adds a charset (IPP_TAG_CHARSET), keyword (IPP_TAG_KEYWORD), mimeMediaType (IPP_TAG_MIMETYPE), name (IPP_TAG_NAME and IPP_TAG_NAMELANG), naturalLanguage (IPP_TAG_NATURAL_LANGUAGE), text (IPP_TAG_TEXT and IPP_TAG_TEXTLANG), uri (IPP_TAG_URI), or uriScheme (IPP_TAG_URISCHEME) attribute with one value.
ippAddStrings adds a charset, keyword, mimeMediaType, name, naturalLanguage, text, uri, or uriScheme attribute with one or more values.
Once you have created the IPP request, you can send it using the cupsDoRequest function. For example, the following code sends the IPP Get-Printer-Attributes request to the destination and saves the response:
ipp_t *response = cupsDoRequest(http, request, resource);
For requests like Send-Document that include a file, the cupsDoFileRequest function should be used:
ipp_t *response = cupsDoFileRequest(http, request, resource,
filename);
Both cupsDoRequest and cupsDoFileRequest free the IPP request. If a valid IPP response is received, it is stored in a new IPP message (ipp_t) and returned to the caller. Otherwise NULL is returned.
The status from the most recent request can be queried using the cupsLastError function, for example:
if (cupsLastError() >= IPP_STATUS_ERROR_BAD_REQUEST)
{
/* request failed */
}
A human-readable error message is also available using the cupsLastErrorString function:
if (cupsLastError() >= IPP_STATUS_ERROR_BAD_REQUEST)
{
/* request failed */
printf("Request failed: %s\n", cupsLastErrorString());
}
Each response to an IPP request is also an IPP message (ipp_t) with its own IPP attributes (ipp_attribute_t) that includes a status code (IPP_STATUS_OK, IPP_STATUS_ERROR_BAD_REQUEST, etc.) and the corresponding 32-bit integer identifier from the request.
For example, the following code finds the printer state attributes and prints their values:
ipp_attribute_t *attr;
if ((attr = ippFindAttribute(response, "printer-state",
IPP_TAG_ENUM)) != NULL)
{
printf("printer-state=%s\n",
ippEnumString("printer-state", ippGetInteger(attr, 0)));
}
else
puts("printer-state=unknown");
if ((attr = ippFindAttribute(response, "printer-state-message",
IPP_TAG_TEXT)) != NULL)
{
printf("printer-state-message=\"%s\"\n",
ippGetString(attr, 0, NULL)));
}
if ((attr = ippFindAttribute(response, "printer-state-reasons",
IPP_TAG_KEYWORD)) != NULL)
{
int i, count = ippGetCount(attr);
puts("printer-state-reasons=");
for (i = 0; i < count; i ++)
printf(" %s\n", ippGetString(attr, i, NULL)));
}
The ippGetCount function returns the number of values in an attribute.
The ippGetInteger and ippGetString functions return a single integer or string value from an attribute.
The ippEnumString function converts a enum value to its keyword (string) equivalent.
Once you are done using the IPP response message, free it using the ippDelete function:
ippDelete(response);
CUPS normally handles authentication through the console. GUI applications should set a password callback using the cupsSetPasswordCB2 function:
void
cupsSetPasswordCB2(cups_password_cb2_t cb, void *user_data);
The password callback will be called when needed and is responsible for setting the current user name using cupsSetUser and returning a string:
const char *
cups_password_cb2(const char *prompt, http_t *http,
const char *method, const char *resource,
void *user_data);
The prompt argument is a string from CUPS that should be displayed to the user.
The http argument is the connection hosting the request that is being authenticated. The password callback can call the httpGetField and httpGetSubField functions to look for additional details concerning the authentication challenge.
The method argument specifies the HTTP method used for the request and is typically "POST".
The resource argument specifies the path used for the request.
The user_data argument provides the user data pointer from the cupsSetPasswordCB2 call.
Add a destination to the list of destinations.
int cupsAddDest(const char *name, const char *instance, int num_dests, cups_dest_t **dests);
| name | Destination name |
|---|---|
| instance | Instance name or NULL for none/primary |
| num_dests | Number of destinations |
| dests | Destinations |
New number of destinations
This function cannot be used to add a new class or printer queue,
it only adds a new container of saved options for the named
destination or instance.
If the named destination already exists, the destination list is
returned unchanged. Adding a new instance of a destination creates
a copy of that destination's options.
Use the cupsSaveDests function to save the updated list of
destinations to the user's lpoptions file.
Add the option corresponding to the specified media size.
int cupsAddDestMediaOptions(http_t *http, cups_dest_t *dest, cups_dinfo_t *dinfo, unsigned flags, cups_size_t *size, int num_options, cups_option_t **options);

Create a new array.
cups_array_t *cupsArrayNew(cups_array_func_t f, void *d);
| f | Comparison function or NULL for an unsorted array |
|---|---|
| d | User data pointer or NULL |
Array
The comparison function ("f") is used to create a sorted array. The function
receives pointers to two elements and the user data pointer ("d") - the user
data pointer argument can safely be omitted when not required so functions
like strcmp can be used for sorted string arrays.
Create a new array with hash.
cups_array_t *cupsArrayNew2(cups_array_func_t f, void *d, cups_ahash_func_t h, int hsize);
| f | Comparison function or NULL for an unsorted array |
|---|---|
| d | User data or NULL |
| h | Hash function or NULL for unhashed lookups |
| hsize | Hash size (>= 0) |
Array
The comparison function ("f") is used to create a sorted array. The function
receives pointers to two elements and the user data pointer ("d") - the user
data pointer argument can safely be omitted when not required so functions
like strcmp can be used for sorted string arrays.
The hash function ("h") is used to implement cached lookups with the
specified hash size ("hsize").
Create a new array with hash and/or free function.

Array
The comparison function ("f") is used to create a sorted array. The function
receives pointers to two elements and the user data pointer ("d") - the user
data pointer argument can safely be omitted when not required so functions
like strcmp can be used for sorted string arrays.
The hash function ("h") is used to implement cached lookups with the
specified hash size ("hsize").
The copy function ("cf") is used to automatically copy/retain elements when
added or the array is copied.
The free function ("cf") is used to automatically free/release elements when
removed or the array is deleted.
Get the next element in the array.
void *cupsArrayNext(cups_array_t *a);
| a | Array |
|---|
Next element or NULL
This function is equivalent to "cupsArrayIndex(a, cupsArrayGetIndex(a) + 1)".

cupsArrayFirst, or cupsArrayIndex, or cupsArrayLast
to set the current element.
Get the previous element in the array.
void *cupsArrayPrev(cups_array_t *a);
| a | Array |
|---|
Previous element or NULL
This function is equivalent to "cupsArrayIndex(a, cupsArrayGetIndex(a) - 1)".
The previous element is undefined until you call cupsArrayFind,
cupsArrayFirst, or cupsArrayIndex, or cupsArrayLast
to set the current element.
Remove an element from the array.
int cupsArrayRemove(cups_array_t *a, void *e);
| a | Array |
|---|---|
| e | Element |
1 on success, 0 on failure
If more than one element matches "e", only the first matching element is

| cancel | Pointer to "cancel" variable |
| resource | Resource buffer |
| resourcesize | Size of resource buffer |
| cb | Callback function |
| user_data | User data pointer |
Connection to destination or NULL
Connect to the destination, returning a new http_t connection object
and optionally the resource path to use for the destination. These calls
will block until a connection is made, the timeout expires, the integer
pointed to by "cancel" is non-zero, or the callback function (or block)
returns 0. The caller is responsible for calling httpClose on the
returned connection.
Starting with CUPS 2.2.4, the caller can pass CUPS_DEST_FLAGS_DEVICE
for the "flags" argument to connect directly to the device associated with
the destination. Otherwise, the connection is made to the CUPS scheduler
associated with the destination.
Copy a destination.
int cupsCopyDest(cups_dest_t *dest, int num_dests, cups_dest_t **dests);
| dest | Destination to copy |
|---|---|
| num_dests | Number of destinations |

1 if there is a conflict, 0 if none, -1 on error
"num_options" and "options" represent the currently selected options by the
user. "new_option" and "new_value" are the setting the user has just
changed.
Returns 1 if there is a conflict, 0 if there are no conflicts, and -1 if
there was an unrecoverable error such as a resolver loop.
If "num_conflicts" and "conflicts" are not NULL, they are set to
contain the list of conflicting option/value pairs. Similarly, if
"num_resolved" and "resolved" are not NULL they will be set to the
list of changes needed to resolve the conflict.
If cupsCopyDestConflicts returns 1 but "num_resolved" and "resolved" are set
to 0 and NULL, respectively, then the conflict cannot be resolved.
Get the supported values/capabilities for the destination.

|---|---|
| num_options | Number of options |
| options | Options |
| group_tag | Group to encode |
This function only adds attributes for a single group. Call this
function multiple times for each group, or use cupsEncodeOptions
to add the standard groups.
Get the current encryption settings.
http_encryption_t cupsEncryption(void);
Encryption settings
The default encryption setting comes from the CUPS_ENCRYPTION
environment variable, then the ~/.cups/client.conf file, and finally the
/etc/cups/client.conf file. If not set, the default is
HTTP_ENCRYPTION_IF_REQUESTED.
Note: The current encryption setting is tracked separately for each thread
in a program. Multi-threaded programs that override the setting via the
cupsSetEncryption function need to do so in each thread for the same
setting to be used.
Enumerate available destinations with a callback function.
int cupsEnumDests(unsigned flags, int msec, int *cancel, cups_ptype_t type, cups_ptype_t mask, cups_dest_cb_t cb, void *user_data);

| cancel | Pointer to "cancel" variable |
| type | Printer type bits |
| mask | Mask for printer type bits |
| cb | Callback function |
| user_data | User data |
1 on success, 0 on failure
Destinations are enumerated from one or more sources. The callback function
receives the user_data pointer and the destination pointer which can
be used as input to the cupsCopyDest function. The function must
return 1 to continue enumeration or 0 to stop.
The type and mask arguments allow the caller to filter the
destinations that are enumerated. Passing 0 for both will enumerate all
printers. The constant CUPS_PRINTER_DISCOVERED is used to filter on
destinations that are available but have not yet been added locally.
Enumeration happens on the current thread and does not return until all
destinations have been enumerated or the callback function returns 0.
Note: The callback function will likely receive multiple updates for the same
destinations - it is up to the caller to suppress any duplicate destinations.
Close a CUPS file.
int cupsFileClose(cups_file_t *fp);
| fp | CUPS file |
|---|
0 on success, -1 on error
Return whether a file is compressed.

| path | Colon/semicolon-separated path |
| executable | 1 = executable files, 0 = any file/dir |
| buffer | Filename buffer |
| bufsize | Size of filename buffer |
Full path to file or NULL if not found
This function allows the paths in the path string to be separated by
colons (UNIX standard) or semicolons (Windows standard) and stores the
result in the buffer supplied. If the file cannot be found in any of
the supplied paths, NULL is returned. A NULL path only
matches the current directory.
Flush pending output.

| fp | File to read from |
|---|---|
| buf | Buffer |
| buflen | Size of buffer |
Number of bytes on line or 0 on end of file
This function differs from cupsFileGets in that the trailing CR
and LF are preserved, as is any binary data on the line. The buffer is
nul-terminated, however you should use the returned length to determine
the number of bytes on the line.
Get a CR and/or LF-terminated line.
char *cupsFileGets(cups_file_t *fp, char *buf, size_t buflen);
| fp | CUPS file |
|---|---|
| buf | String buffer |

0 on success, -1 on error
Return the file descriptor associated with a CUPS file.
int cupsFileNumber(cups_file_t *fp);
| fp | CUPS file |
|---|
File descriptor
Open a CUPS file.
cups_file_t *cupsFileOpen(const char *filename, const char *mode);
| filename | Name of file |
|---|---|
| mode | Open mode |
CUPS file or NULL if the file or socket cannot be opened
The "mode" parameter can be "r" to read, "w" to write, overwriting any
existing file, "a" to append to an existing file or create a new file,
or "s" to open a socket connection.
When opening for writing ("w"), an optional number from 1 to 9 can be
supplied which enables Flate compression of the file. Compression is
not supported for the "a" (append) mode.
When opening a socket connection, the filename is a string of the form
"address:port" or "hostname:port". The socket will make an IPv4 or IPv6
connection as needed, generally preferring IPv6 connections when there is
a choice.
Open a CUPS file using a file descriptor.
cups_file_t *cupsFileOpenFd(int fd, const char *mode);
| fd | File descriptor |
|---|---|
| mode | Open mode |
CUPS file or NULL if the file could not be opened
The "mode" parameter can be "r" to read, "w" to write, "a" to append,
or "s" to treat the file descriptor as a bidirectional socket connection.
When opening for writing ("w"), an optional number from 1 to 9 can be
supplied which enables Flate compression of the file. Compression is
not supported for the "a" (append) mode.
Peek at the next character from a file.
int cupsFilePeekChar(cups_file_t *fp);

| http | Connection to server or CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT |
|---|---|
| name | Destination name or NULL for the default destination |
| instance | Instance name or NULL |
Destination or NULL
This function is optimized for retrieving a single destination and should
be used instead of cupsGetDests2 and cupsGetDest when you
either know the name of the destination or want to print to the default
destination. If NULL is returned, the destination does not exist or
there is no default destination.
If "http" is CUPS_HTTP_DEFAULT, the connection to the default print
server will be used.
If "name" is NULL, the default printer for the current user will be
returned.
The returned destination must be freed using cupsFreeDests with a
"num_dests" value of 1.

CUPS_RASTER_WRITE,
CUPS_RASTER_WRITE_COMPRESSED,
or CUPS_RASTER_WRITE_PWG |
New stream
This function associates a raster stream with the given file descriptor.
For most printer driver filters, "fd" will be 0 (stdin). For most raster
image processor (RIP) filters that generate raster data, "fd" will be 1
(stdout).
When writing raster data, the CUPS_RASTER_WRITE,
CUPS_RASTER_WRITE_COMPRESS, or CUPS_RASTER_WRITE_PWG mode can
be used - compressed and PWG output is generally 25-50% smaller but adds a
100-300% execution time overhead.
Open a raster stream using a callback function.
cups_raster_t *cupsRasterOpenIO(cups_raster_iocb_t iocb, void *ctx, cups_mode_t mode);

Return the hostname/address of the current server.
const char *cupsServer(void);
Server name
The default server comes from the CUPS_SERVER environment variable, then the
~/.cups/client.conf file, and finally the /etc/cups/client.conf file. If not
set, the default is the local system - either "localhost" or a domain socket
path.
The returned value can be a fully-qualified hostname, a numeric IPv4 or IPv6
address, or a domain socket pathname.
Note: The current server is tracked separately for each thread in a program.
Multi-threaded programs that override the server via the
cupsSetServer function need to do so in each thread for the same
server to be used.

| e | New encryption preference |
|---|
The default encryption setting comes from the CUPS_ENCRYPTION
environment variable, then the ~/.cups/client.conf file, and finally the
/etc/cups/client.conf file. If not set, the default is
HTTP_ENCRYPTION_IF_REQUESTED.
Note: The current encryption setting is tracked separately for each thread
in a program. Multi-threaded programs that override the setting need to do
so in each thread for the same setting to be used.
Set the advanced password callback for CUPS.
void cupsSetPasswordCB2(cups_password_cb2_t cb, void *user_data);
| cb | Callback function |
|---|---|
| user_data | User data pointer |
Pass NULL to restore the default (console) password callback, which
reads the password from the console. Programs should call either this
function or cupsSetPasswordCB2, as only one callback can be registered
by a program per thread.
Note: The current password callback is tracked separately for each thread
in a program. Multi-threaded programs that override the callback need to do
so in each thread for the same callback to be used.
Set the default server name and port.
void cupsSetServer(const char *server);
| server | Server name |
|---|
The "server" string can be a fully-qualified hostname, a numeric
IPv4 or IPv6 address, or a domain socket pathname. Hostnames and numeric IP
addresses can be optionally followed by a colon and port number to override
the default port 631, e.g. "hostname:8631". Pass NULL to restore the
default server name and port.
Note: The current server is tracked separately for each thread in a program.
Multi-threaded programs that override the server need to do so in each
thread for the same server to be used.
Set the server certificate callback.
void cupsSetServerCertCB(cups_server_cert_cb_t cb, void *user_data);
| cb | Callback function |
|---|---|
| user_data | User data pointer |

| path | Keychain path or NULL for default |
|---|---|
| common_name | Default common name for server |
| auto_create | 1 = automatically create self-signed certificates |
1 on success, 0 on failure
Note: The server credentials are used by all threads in the running process. This function is threadsafe.
Set the default user name.
void cupsSetUser(const char *user);
| user | User name |
|---|
Pass NULL to restore the default user name.
Note: The current user name is tracked separately for each thread in a
program. Multi-threaded programs that override the user name need to do so
in each thread for the same user name to be used.
Set the default HTTP User-Agent string.
void cupsSetUserAgent(const char *user_agent);
| user_agent | User-Agent string or NULL |
|---|
Setting the string to NULL forces the default value containing the CUPS version, IPP version, and operating system version and architecture.

reference copy of the attribute is created - this should only be done as long as the
original source IPP message will not be freed for the life of the destination.
The cb and context parameters provide a generic way to "filter" the
attributes that are copied - the function must return 1 to copy the attribute or
0 to skip it. The function may also choose to do a partial copy of the source attribute
itself.

the client.
NULL is returned if all attributes should be returned. Otherwise, the
result is a sorted array of attribute names, where cupsArrayFind(array,
"attribute-name") will return a non-NULL pointer. The array must be freed
using the cupsArrayDelete function.
