# How to disable CUPS pinter job history on macOS
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- Computer running macOS Monterey or Ventura
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup guide
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: clear job history
|
||||
|
||||
> Heads-up: purges `/var/spool/cups`.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
$ cancel -a -x
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: create `/usr/local/sbin` directory
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/sbin
|
||||
sudo chown ${USER}:admin /usr/local/sbin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: create `cups.sh` script
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
cat << "EOF" > /usr/local/sbin/cups.sh
|
||||
#! /bin/sh
|
||||
|
||||
set -e
|
||||
|
||||
if grep -qe '^PreserveJobHistory Off$' /etc/cups/cupsd.conf; then
|
||||
exit 0
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
echo "PreserveJobHistory Off" | sudo tee -a /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
|
||||
|
||||
launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.cups.cupsd.plist
|
||||
|
||||
launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.cups.cupsd.plist
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: make `cups.sh` executable
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/cups.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 5: create `local.cups.plist` launch daemon
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
cat << "EOF" | sudo tee /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.cups.plist
|
||||
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
|
||||
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
|
||||
<plist version="1.0">
|
||||
<dict>
|
||||
<key>Label</key>
|
||||
<string>local.cups</string>
|
||||
|
||||
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
|
||||
<array>
|
||||
<string>/usr/local/sbin/cups.sh</string>
|
||||
</array>
|
||||
|
||||
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
|
||||
<true/>
|
||||
</dict>
|
||||
</plist>
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 6: reboot
