Michael R Sweet, author of the press system, presented Issue pappl 1.2 , framework for the development of printing applications based on the IPP EVERWERE protocol, which are recommended to be used instead of traditional Drivers for printers. The framework of the framework is written in the language of si and is distributed under the license Apache 2.0 with an exception allowing the licenses under the licenses GPLV2 and LGPLV2.

  • Added interpolation support when printing JPEG images or when using the Pappljobfilterimage function with turned on.
  • Additional capabilities of the IPP protocol ( Internet Printing Protocol ) and the new APIs: PappLDEVITSUPLIES for determining the level of the level PAPPLSYSTEMADEVENT/PAPPPLSUBSCRIPRIPIONXX for processing IPP notifications, PAPPLSYSTEMGET/SETMAXCLIENTS to limit the number of customers. The functions of PAPPLPRINTERDISBLE and PAPPLPRITERENABLE added support for the IPP attribute “Printer-Sis-CCCCEPTING-JOBS”.
  • Added the ability to set the own sizes of sheets in millimeters.
  • Added support for libraries Opensl and Libressl.
  • USB Gadget code used to create customer USB devices and software simulation of USB devices.

PAPPL Framwork was originally designed to support the press system lprint and drivers gutenprint , but can be used to implement support for any printers and drivers when printing for printing, server and built -in systems. It is assumed that PAPPL can help accelerate the promotion of IPP EVERYWHERE technology instead of classic drivers and simplify support for other IPP programs, such as airprint and mopria .
