[and add the following to Informative References] [ISO7498-1] Information technology -- Open Systems Interconnection -- Basic Reference Model -- Part 1: The Basic Model, ISO 7498-1:1994. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [revise the following definition in section 2.2] change: Impression:  An Impression is the image imposed                                  ^^^^^ to: Impression:  An Impression is the content imposed                                  ^^^^^^^ [the term 'image' came from the IPP/1.1 definition, but it's circular, as Bill Wagner has observed - the term 'content' preserves the meaning.] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [add the following definitions to section 2.2] Blank Image:  A Blank Image is an Image requiring zero pixel colors to represent. Source:  This  document originates this definition of Blank Image by analogy to Blank Impression. Blank Impression:  A Blank Impression is an Impression requiring zero colorants (i.e., no marks are impressed on the media sheet side by the processing Service).  Pre-printed media do not affect Blank Impression counters (i.e., it is the lack of any content marked by the processing Service that distinguishes a Blank Impression). Source:  The document originates this definition of Blank Impression as an extension of the other impression types. Blank Sheet:  A Blank Sheet is a Sheet with no Impression marked on either side. Source:  This document originates this definition of Blank Sheet by analogy to Blank Impression. Full Color Image:  A Full Color Image is typically defined as an Image requiring three or more pixel colors to represent, but this MAY vary by implementation. Source:  This document originates this definition of Full Color Image by analogy to Full Color Impression. Full Color Impression:  A Full Color Impression is typically defined as an Impression requiring three or more colorants, but this MAY vary by implementation.  In any case, the value of a Full Color Impression counter MUST increment by one for each media sheet side that is marked in full color, not by the number of colorants used. Full color takes precedence over monochrome or highlight color on a given media sheet side (i.e., the most complex process MUST be counted). Source:  This document imports this definition of Full Color Impression from the Job Monitoring MIB [RFC2707]. Full Color Sheet:  A Full Color Sheet is a Sheet with a Full Color Impression marked on one or both sides. Source:  This  document originates this definition of Full Color Sheet by analogy to Full Color Impression. Highlight Color Impression:  A Highlight Color Impression is typically defined an Impression requiring a black colorant plus one other colorant, but this MAY vary by implementation.  In any case, a Highlight Color Impression counter MUST increment by one for each media sheet side that is marked in highlight color. Full color takes precedence over monochrome or highlight color on a given media sheet side (i.e., the most complex process MUST be counted). Source:  This document imports this definition of Highlight Color Impression from the Job Monitoring MIB [RFC2707]. Highlight Color Sheet:  A Highlight Color Sheet is a Sheet with a Highlight Color Impression (but not full color) marked on one or both sides. Source:  This  document originates this definition of Highlight Color Sheet by analogy to Highlight Color Impression. Monochrome Image:  A Monochrome Image is an Image requiring a single pixel color (typically black, but this MAY vary by implementation). Source:  This document originates this definition of Monochrome Image by analogy to Monochrome Impression. Monochrome Impression:  A Monochrome Impression is an Impression requiring a single colorant (typically black, but this MAY vary by implementation).  In any case, a Monochrome Impression counter MUST increment by one for each media sheet side that is marked in monochrome. Full color takes precedence over monochrome or highlight color on a given media sheet side (i.e., the most complex process MUST be counted). Source:  This document imports this definition of Monochrome Impression from the Job Monitoring MIB [RFC2707]. Monochrome Sheet:  A Monochrome Sheet is a Sheet with a Monochrome Impression (but not full color or highlight) marked on one or both sides. Source:  This  document originates this definition of Monochrome Sheet by analogy to Monochrome Impression. Media Sheet:  Synonym for Sheet (see definition of Sheet below). Source:  See definition of Sheet below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ </tt>
