All, Anyone objecting to changing the maturity level of this specification to Prototype should send their objection to mailto:[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> The latest document is available at ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/new_JOBX/wd-ippjobx10-20030808.pdf <ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/new_JOBX/wd-ippjobx10-20030808.pdf> . The changes from the last version include one issues and some clean-up. In "The Printer Working Group (PWG) Standard for Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):Document Object" there was one issue and some updates required. Below is the summary. See the specification for the details. Pete ISSUE : The [rfc2911] Job Description attribute "output-device-assigned" is single-valued even though the "output-device" Job Template can be supplied at the Job, Document and page Override (i.e. Sheet) level. Resolution: Leave the Job Description attribute single-valued. This will prevent any interoperability problems with existing implementations. It will also handle the majority of uses. Add a single-valued "output-device" Job Template attribute which MAY be supplied in a Document Creation operation to give it Document scope and in the "overrides" attribute to give it Sheet scope.. . Implementations that allow the routing of individual sheets should be capable of implementing "overrided" and "-actuals". Even if they don't support -actuals, the "overrides" Template attribute will contain the requested output devices. Version 0.6, August 8, 2003: 1. Changed "output-device-requested" to "output-device" 2. Made "output-device" a Job Template attribute, instead of an Operation attribute for the following two reasons: (1) so that it can be used at the Sheet level in "overrides" to print a Sheet containing color pages on a color printer while the other Sheets are printed on a black and white printer and (2) so that the "output-device-actual" can be used to indicate the actual device(s) used, since [rfc2911] "output-device-assigned" is only single valued. 3. Updated introduction 4. Added xxx-supplied to Job Description & updated table 5 5. "output-device-default" explicitly prohibited & split out into its own section 6. Added "output-device" multivalue issue/resolution. 7. Added overrides summary and scoping of new attributes 8. Added "-actual"s 9. Added Section 8 "Override Scope of Attributes" 10. Added "print-content-optimized 11. Moved "server-too-many-*" error codes from Document Object spec to here.
