NAME
       ippfind - find internet printing protocol printers

SYNOPSIS
       ippfind [ options ] regtype[,subtype][.domain.] ... [ expression ...  ]
       ippfind [ options ] name[.regtype[.domain.]] ... [  expression  ...   ]
       ippfind --help ippfind --version

OPTIONS
       --help
	    Show program help

       --version
	    Show program version

       -4   Use IPv4 when listing

       -6   Use IPv6 when listing

       -T seconds
	    Specify  find  timeout  in seconds. If 1 or less, ippfind stops as
	    soon as it thinks it has found everything. The default is  1  sec‐
	    ond.

       -V version
	    Specifies  the IPP version when listing. Supported values are 1.1,
	    2.0, 2.1, and 2.2.

DESCRIPTION
       ippfind finds services  registered  with	 a  DNS	 server	 or  available
       through	local devices. Its primary purpose is to find IPP printers and
       show their URIs, show their current status, or run commands. For	 exam‐
       ple, to show the status of all registered IPP printers on your network,
       run:
	   ippfind --ls
       Similarly, to send a PostScript test page to every PostScript  printer,
       run:
	   ippfind --txt-pdl application/postscript --exec ipptool \
	       -f onepage-letter.ps '{}' print-job.test \;

REGISTRATION TYPES
       ippfind supports the following registration types:

       _http._tcp
	    HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP, RFC 2616)

       _https._tcp
	    Secure HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTPS, RFC 2818)

       _ipp._tcp
	    Internet Printing Protocol (IPP, RFC 2911)

       _ipps._tcp
	    Secure Internet Printing Protocol (IPPS, draft)

       _printer._tcp
	    Line Printer Daemon (LPD, RFC 1179)

EXPRESSIONS
       ippfind	supports  expressions  much like the find(1) utility. However,
       unlike find, ippfind uses POSIX regular expressions  instead  of	 shell
       filename	 matching patterns. If --exec, -l, --ls, -p, --print, --print-
       name, -q, --quiet, -s, or -x is not specified, ippfind adds --print  to
       print  the  service URI of anything it finds. The following expressions
       are supported:

       -d regex

       --domain regex
	    True if the domain matches the given regular expression.

       --false
	    Always false.

       -h regex

       --host regex
	    True is the hostname matches the given regular expression.

       -l

       --ls Lists attributes returned by Get-Printer-Attributes for IPP print‐
	    ers and traditional find "-ls" output for HTTP URLs. The result is
	    true if the URI is accessible, false otherwise.

       --local
	    True if the service is local to this computer.

       -n regex

       --name regex
	    True if the	 service  instance  name  matches  the	given  regular
	    expression.

       --path regex
	    True  if  the  URI resource path matches the given regular expres‐
	    sion.

       -P number[-number]

       --port number[-number]
	    True if the port matches the given number or range.

       -p

       --print
	    Prints the URI if the result of previous expressions is true.  The
	    result is always true.

       -q

       --quiet
	    Quiet mode - just returns the exit codes below.

       -r

       --remote
	    True if the service is not local to this computer.

       -s

       --print-name
	    Prints the service instance name if the result of previous expres‐
	    sions is true. The result is always true.

       --true
	    Always true.

       -t key

       --txt key
	    True if the TXT record contains the named key.

       --txt-key regex
	    True if the TXT record contains the	 named	key  and  matches  the
	    given regular expression.

       -u regex

       --uri regex
	    True if the URI matches the given regular expression.

       -x utility [argument ...] ;

       --exec utility [argument ...] ;
	    Executes  the  specified  program  if  the current result is true.
	    "{foo}" arguments are replaced with the corresponding value -  see
	    SUBSTITUTIONS below.

       Expressions may also contain modifiers:

       ( expression )
	    Group the result of expressions.

       ! expression

       --not expression
	    Unary NOT of the expression.

       expression expression

       expression --and expression
	    Logical AND of expressions.

       expression --or expression
	    Logical OR of expressions.

       The substitutions for "{foo}" in -e and --exec are:

       {}   URI

	    Domain name, e.g., "example.com.", "local.", etc.

       {service_hostname}

	    "printer.local.", etc.

       {service_name}
	    Service instance name, e.g., "My Fine Printer".

       {service_port}
	    Port number for server, typically 631 for IPP and 80 for HTTP.

       {service_regtype}
	    DNS-SD registration type, e.g., "_ipp._tcp", "_http._tcp", etc.

       {service_scheme}
	    URI scheme for DNS-SD registration type, e.g., "ipp", "http", etc.

       {service_uri}
	    URI	  for	service,    e.g.,    "ipp://printer.local./ipp/print",
	    "http://printer.local./", etc.

       {txt_key}
	    Value of TXT record key (lowercase).

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       When  executing a program, ippfind sets the following environment vari‐
       ables for the matching service registration:

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_DOMAIN
	    Domain name, e.g., "example.com.", "local.", etc.

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_HOSTNAME
	    Fully-qualified   domain   name,   e.g.,   "printer.example.com.",
	    "printer.local.", etc.

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_NAME
	    Service instance name, e.g., "My Fine Printer".

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_PORT
	    Port number for server, typically 631 for IPP and 80 for HTTP.

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_REGTYPE
	    DNS-SD registration type, e.g., "_ipp._tcp", "_http._tcp", etc.

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_SCHEME
	    URI scheme for DNS-SD registration type, e.g., "ipp", "http", etc.

       IPPFIND_SERVICE_URI
	    URI	   for	  service,   e.g.,   "ipp://printer.local./ipp/print",
	    "http://printer.local./", etc.

       IPPFIND_TXT_KEY
	    Values of TXT record KEY (uppercase).

EXIT CODES
       ippfind returns 0 if the result for all processed expressions is	 true,
       1  if the result of any processed expression is false, 2 if browsing or
       any query or resolution failed, 3 if an	undefined  option  or  invalid
       expression was specified, and 4 if it ran out of memory.
