IFX> Proposed new Job and Document events (IPP Notifications)

[McDonald, Ira]

Hi folks,                                        Wedesday (11 June 2003)

Per an action item of mine from last week's PSI telecon (3 June) and in
preparation for our IFX telecon on IPP Notifications and IPPGET this
afternoon, below are all of the currently defined IPP events:

'printer-state-changed'         REQUIRED
    (sub-events)
    'printer-restarted'             OPTIONAL
    'printer-shutdown'              OPTIONAL
    'printer-stopped'               REQUIRED

'printer-config-changed'        REQUIRED
    (sub-events)
    'printer-media-changed'         OPTIONAL
    'printer-finishings-changed'    OPTIONAL

'printer-queue-order-changed'   OPTIONAL


'job-state-changed'             REQUIRED
    (sub-events)
    'job-created'                   REQUIRED
    'job-completed'                 REQUIRED
    'job-stopped'                   OPTIONAL

'job-config-changed'            OPTIONAL

'job-progress'                  OPTIONAL (page-level progress)


I propose (for IPPFAX) two new job progress sub-events:

'job-progress'                  OPTIONAL (page-level progress)
    (sub-events)
    'job-error'                     OPTIONAL (page-level error)
    'job-warning'                   OPTIONAL (page-level warning)


I propose (for IPP Document object) a new set of document events:

'document-state-changed'        REQUIRED (if Document object supported)
    (sub-events)
    'document-created'              REQUIRED
    'document-completed'            REQUIRED


Also worth considering are the (oddly, undefined) 'job-processing' and
'document-processing' events.

Comments?
