Какие форматы файлов поддерживает CUPS?

CUPS utiliza una base de datos MIME para determinar qué conversiones de archivos puede realizar.

La base de datos se compone de archivos *.convsy *.types. Ambos tienen páginas man:

• https://www.cups.org/doc/man-mime.convs.html
• https://www.cups.org/doc/man-mime.types.html

La página de manual de cupsd enumera las ubicaciones de estos archivos como:

• /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.convs
• /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.types

Por lo general, hay archivos adicionales *.convs y *.types en /usr/share/cups/mime/, y cupsd también los usa.

En mi sistema Slackware 14.2, obtengo lo siguiente:

$ grep -h "^[^#]" /usr/share/cups/mime/*.convs | sort

También puede ver qué filtros utilizará una conversión llamando cupsfilterdirectamente con un archivo y la opción --list-filters(que no imprimirá el archivo):

$ cupsfilter --list-filters foo.png
imagetoraster
rastertopwg
rastertopdf

(Nota :Tengo una impresora predeterminada configurada a través de lpoptions, por lo que no tuve que proporcionar el nombre de la impresora. Si es necesario, puede pasar el nombre de la impresora a cupsfiltercon la opción -d.)
