[Issue Unconfirmed]

Sub-sections of section 5.2 each end with a statement similar to the last
sentence of section 5.2.1: 

"The Printer sets this Job Description attribute from the corresponding
Operation attribute (see [rfc2911] §3.2.1.1) supplied by the client in the
Job Creation operation."

However, some Job or Document attributes such as "compression" may not be
specified by a Job Creation operation (Print-Job, Print-URI, or Create-Job,
as per RFC 8011 section 4.1.9) but rather by a Send-Document operation,
which is strictly speaking not a Job Creation operation, but rather a Job
operation or Document Creation operation, depending on which spec you read
(RFC 8011 or PWG 5100.5).

Clarify each sub-section of 5.2 to make it clear that the corresponding Job
Template or Document Template attribute may not be specified in the Job
Creation operation, but rather in a Document Creation operation / Job
operation such as Send-Document or Send-URI.
