Hi,

Many thanks to Rick Landau and Dell for their gracious permission
to publish this evidence of prototype.

Below are MIB excerpts from two Dell printers of PWG Printer Port
Monitor MIB [PWG5107.1] object "ppmPrinterIEEE1284DeviceId":

[newlines added between capabilities for legibility]

.1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.2.1.1.3.1 = STRING:
"MFG:Dell;
CMD:PJL,RASTER,DOWNLOAD,TIJL,SCJL,ECHO,PCLXL,PCL,
HBPL,POSTSCRIPT;
MDL:MFP Laser 3115cn;
DES:Dell MFP Laser3115cn;
CLS:PRINTER;
STS:AAATAwD/AP8AFAABUANQAygDKANkA2QzYBoAAAAAs
IYAAAAA8IYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIQZAr
QAAAAAAAAT/;"

.1.3.6.1.4.1.2699.1.2.1.2.1.1.3.1 = STRING:
"MFG:Dell;
CMD:PJL,RASTER,DOWNLOAD,TIJL,SCJL,PCLXL,PCL;
MDL:2135cn MFP;
DES:Dell 2135cnMFP;
CLS:PRINTER;
STS:AAASBAD/AP8AAAAAAAQAB2QDZANkA2QDZANkA2QD
QBoAAAAAsIYAAAAAAAAAAAAA4AAAEAAAAAAM/w==;"

In both, the strings "PJL", "PCLXL", and "PCL" correspond
correctly to values of PrtInterpreterLangFamilyTC in the IANA
Printer MIB (with the "lang" prefixed stripped, per this spec in
WG last call).  However, "POSTSCRIPT" should be "PS".

Cheers,
- Ira
