Hi Ron,

The first is a good catch - thanks.

The rest are rewordings that attempt to tersely redefine
what a 'black media sheet' (for example) means.  The
Counter MIB normatively imports these definitions from
the Counter Spec.  The rewordings are possibly dangerous
and add no value (in my opinion).  It is NOT the business
of the Counter MIB to redefine these terms at variance
with the Counter Spec.

My two cents,
- Ira

I have two comments on this document. 
1. Invalid examples in the description clause for: 
icKeySubunitType  The text "(e.g., print, copy, etc.)" is incorrect 
for this object.  Should be "(e.g., inputTray, outputBin, etc.)". 
2. Unclear wording in the description clauses for: 
icSheetBlackSheets:

        managed service (e.g., 'icServiceType' of 'print')
