cups-files.conf - file and directory configuration file for cups

The cups-file.conf file configures the files and directories used by the CUPS scheduler, cupsd(8). It is normally located in the /etc/cups directory.

Each line in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a comment. Comment lines start with the # character.

The following directives are understood by cupsd(8). Consult the on-line help for detailed descriptions:
