I looked for a similiar thread and couldn't find one. I'm hoping this will be used solely for communicating what is IN and what is OUT of Jaguar.



My question:



Is USB Printer Sharing part of Jaguar?

    USB printer sharing is in Jaguar. I'm almost 100% sure of that.

    That's what I thought. Isn't CUPS support linked to USBPS?

    Oh, yes, another question:



    What about Game Sprockets and input Sprockets?



    Does Jaguar support joystick, gamepads more than OS X.1 ?



    It seems that there is no general API for joysticks and gamepads. Am I missing something here?

    Yeah. CUPS is responsible for printing and printer sharing.

    I think Apple killed them. I'm assuming Apple will supply a few more drivers though. Joysticks and gamepads are probably under jurisdiction of I/O Kit. But I don't really know, since I'm not following the technical details of OS X. A bunch of people around here would know precisely what's going on, so I'll leave it to them.

    The link includes a reference to



    "Updated printer drivers"



    Does that mean support for custom paper sizes and borderless printing?



    Will I be able to print borderless 4x6 photos?
