The dialog to configure the CUPS server miscellaneous settings is shown here. The following server settings are done through this screen:
Preserve job history: whether to preserve a job history for later re-view
Preserve job files: whether to preserve fully RIP-ed job files for later re-print
Printcap file: setting the name of and the path to a printcap file
RIP Cache: setting the size of the RIP cache in memory
Filter Limit: defining a filter limit
Whether or not to preserve the job history after a job is completed, canceled, or stopped. The default is yes
Whether or not to preserve the job files after a job is completed, canceled, or stopped. The default is no.
The name of the printcap file. The default is no filename. Leave this blank, to disable printcap file generation.
The printcap setting is only needed to satisfy older applications in need of such a file.
The amount of memory that each RIP should use to cache bitmaps. The value can be any real number, followed by “k” for kilobytes, “m” for megabytes, “g”for gigabytes, or “t” for tiles, where one tile is 256 x 256 pixels. The default value is 8m.
Sets the maximum cost of all job filters that can be run at the same time. A limit of 0 means no limit. A typical job may need a filter limit of at least 200. Limits less than the minimum required by a job force a single job to be printed at any time. The default limit is 0 (unlimited).
