+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fBcupsd\-helper\fR programs perform long-running operations on behalf of the scheduler,
+.BR cupsd (8).
+The \fBcups-deviced\fR helper program runs each CUPS
+.BR backend (7)
+with no arguments in order to discover the available printers.
+.LP
+The \fBcups-driverd\fR helper program lists all available printer drivers, a subset of "matching" printer drivers, or a copy of a specific driver PPD file.
+.LP
+The \fBcups-exec\fR helper program runs backends, filters, and other programs. On OS X these programs are run in a secure sandbox.
+.SH FILES
+The \fBcups-driverd\fR program looks for PPD and driver information files in the following directories:
+.nf
+
+ \fI/Library/Printers\fR
+ \fI/opt/share/ppd\fR
+ \fI/System/Library/Printers\fR
+ \fI/usr/local/share/ppd\fR
+ \fI/usr/share/cups/drv\fR
+ \fI/usr/share/cups/model\fR
+ \fI/usr/share/ppd\fR
+.fi
+.LP
+PPD files can be compressed using the
+.BR gzip (1)
+program or placed in compressed
+.BR tar (1)
+archives to further reduce their size.
+.LP
+Driver information files must conform to the format defined in
+.BR ppdcfile (5).
