papd.conf - Configuration file used by papd(8)
to determine the configuration of printers used by the Netatalk printing
daemon
DESCRIPTION
/usr/etc/netatalk/papd.conf is the configuration file used
by papd to configure the printing services offered by netatalk. Please note
that papd must be enabled in /usr/etc/netatalk/netatalk.conf for this to take
any effect. papd shares the same defaults as lpd on many systems, but not
Solaris.
Any line not prefixed with # is interpreted. The configuration lines
are composed like:
printername:[options]
The simplest case is to have either no papd.conf, or to have one that
has no active lines. In this case, atalkd should auto-discover the local
printers on the machine. Please note that you can split lines by using
\.
The possible options are colon delimited (:), and lines must be
terminated with colons. The possible options and flags are:
am=(uams list)
The am option allows specific UAMs to be specified for a particular
printer. It has no effect if the au flag is not present or if papd
authentication was not built into netatalk.
au
If present, this flag enables authentication for the printer. Please note
that papd authentication must be built into netatalk for this to take
effect.
op=(operator)
This specifies the operator name, for lpd spooling.
pa=(appletalk address)
Allows specification of Appletalk addresses. Usually not needed.
pd=(path to ppd file)
Specifies a particular PPD (printer description file) to associate with
the selected printer.
