Device Description INI files: section [drivers]

Section [drivers]

Mandatory keys are:

Key Description
executable your driver executable
Attention
Do not add any path to the driver executable file name. It is always expected in the CAPS Printer Driver Executables Directory.

Optional keys are:

Key Description
options some command line options on demand

The string you assign to the options keyword is used verbatim as an argument when launching your driver. Since the content of the Device Description INI file is available at run-time as well, this keyword might be redundant.

Here an example:

[driver]
executable=caps-driver-spl2-a
options=--module=ML1640

Printer drivers can add more sections on demand. For example USB based printer drivers expect the additional section [ID]. Refer Device Description INI files: section [id] for details.
