[Printing-architecture] CUPS queues should emulate IPP Everywhere printers - First tests

[Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmail.com>]

Hi,

on a Ubuntu Vivid (15.04) system I have done the PWG self certification 
tests according to the manual, applied to the local CUPS queues. I get a 
lot of FAILs.

I simply shared all local queues via

cupsctl --share-printers

Then I determined the service names of the local queues by running

sudo /usr/lib/cups/backend/dnssd

giving the service names in its debug output.

Now I have run The Bonjour and IPP tests with following observations:

1. Many FAILs. Where should I report them? CUPS bugs? CUPS mailing list? 
This mailing list?

2. The IPP test prints a JPG file. Isit required for an IPP Everywhere 
printer to print JPG? Is not PWG Raster the only required format?

3. The JPG file printed by the IPP test consumes a lot of ink. Can one 
not use a text page converted to JPG for this test?

Already having the mentioned problems in the first two tests I skipped 
the document test.

    Till

P. S.: CUPS 2.0.2 has no everywhere directory, does this only appear in 
2.1.x?
