That's sort-of the direction they're going with CUPS 3. The 'local server', which is what most people will need, runs as a normal user, not root, doesn't listen on the internet, and talks only the IPP everywhere protocol. For supporting legacy printers, there will be separate sandboxed 'printer applications' which read in IPP Everywhere, run the driver code, and communicate with the backend printer using an appropriate protocol. For enterprise users there will be a separate 'sharing server'. https://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/liaison/openprinting/presentatio... |
