Posted by Michael Larabel on August 28, 2009

On the same day as the release of the Mac OS X 10.6 operating system, which contains many printing improvements among its new feature set, the Apple-owned CUPS project has come out with version 1.4.0. CUPS 1.4 offers improvements to its web interface (including a brand new look), CUPS DDK tools, Bonjour printing support, many scheduler improvements, and over 67 other changes.

The CUPS 1.4.0 release announcement can be read at CUPS.org. The CUPS documentation details some of what's new in this major update.
