Hi,

There's quite a lot of detail (and some examples) in the configuration guide
(see link in Jerry's note below), including a list of "Application Type" values
(which doesn't include printing or printers, of course).  There's also some
information about interworking with MS NEA stuff.

Cheers,
- Ira
