“Easy Software Products today announced the 1.1.7 release of the
Common UNIX Printing System (“CUPS”), an IPP/1.1-based printing
system for UNIX.”

“CUPS 1.1.7 provides many new features including support for
most Apache configuration file directives, support for running as a
non-priviledged user on port 631, classification and page labels,
and several new security features to prevent DoS and spoofing
attacks. In addition to the new features, CUPS 1.1.7 includes bug
fixes for the PostScript RIP and scheduler that could cause
unreliable operation on some systems.
