Hi Harry,
Please see my note to Bert about my typo.
But, yes, like ALL other textual conventions in IANA Printer MIB and Printer
MIB v2
it makes sense to define 'unknown' for the default value of a new row in the
table.
Cheers,
- Ira

Does it make sense to have an alert in an "unknown" group? What is the
reasoning?
This is my only question. The rest of the changes look good.

PMP> Updates for IANA Printer MIB
Hi folks, Monday (25 July 2005)
Below are proposed updates for missing 'out-of-band' values to three
textual conventions defined in the IANA-PRINTER-MIB. These missing
'unknown(2)' values were technical errors in Printer MIB v1 (RFC 1759)
and Printer MIB v2 (RFC 3805).
These updates will allow the new Printer Port Monitor MIB to use a
syntax of PrtChannelTypeTC for the ppmPortProtocolType object (as
recently requested by Bert Wijnen). These updates should also improve
interoperability among Printer MIB implementations (they are all the
appropriate default values).
After review, these additions should be sent to IANA for registration
in the IANA-PRINTER-MIB by our Designated Experts, Bert Wijnen and Harry
Lewis.
Comments?
Cheers,
- Ira (co-editor of Printer MIB v2)
