cupsd: Start `cupsd` using the specified `cups-file`[`s`]`.conf` configuration file.
$ cupsd -s ${path-to-cups-files-conf}
try on your machine
The command "cupsd -s ${path-to-cups-files-conf}" is used to start the CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System) daemon, which manages printing tasks on UNIX-like operating systems.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "cupsd": This is the name of the executable file for the CUPS daemon. Running this command starts the daemon.
- "-s": This is a command-line option that stands for "start" or "service". It indicates that the daemon should be started or run as a service.
- "${path-to-cups-files-conf}": This is a placeholder that represents the path to the "cups-files.conf" file, which is a configuration file for CUPS. You need to replace "${path-to-cups-files-conf}" with the actual path to the file on your system.
When you execute this command with the correct path to the "cups-files.conf" file, it will start the CUPS daemon and begin managing print services on your UNIX-like operating system.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
