<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Hi ,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2> Can
anybody explain the actual usage of the limit attribute which is optional
in get-jobs request ? In what way will it be useful to the IPP client
?</FONT></DIV>

<P>the lines from IPP Model semantics reads as follows</P>
<P>"limit" (integer(1:MAX)): </P>
<P></FONT><FONT face=Times-Roman>The client OPTIONALLY supplies this attribute.
The Printer object MUST support this </FONT><FONT face=Helvetica
size=1></P></FONT><FONT face=Times-Roman>
<P>attribute. It is an integer value that indicates a limit to the number of Job
objects returned. The </FONT><FONT face=Helvetica size=1></P></FONT><FONT
face=Times-Roman>
<P>limit is a "stateless limit" in that if the value supplied by the
client is ’N’, then only the first ’N’ </FONT><FONT
face=Helvetica size=1></P></FONT><FONT face=Times-Roman>
<P>jobs are returned in the Get-Jobs Response. There is no mechanism to allow
for the next ’M’ jobs </FONT><FONT face=Helvetica
size=1></P></FONT><FONT face=Times-Roman>
<P>after the first ’N’ jobs. If the client does not supply this
attribute, the Printer object responds with </FONT><FONT face=Helvetica
size=1></P></FONT><FONT face=Times-Roman>
<P>all applicable jobs. </P>
