    IPP FAX WG,

    I've attached some IPP FAX Status slides (13K .zip file) that Lloyd McIntyre
    will present to the Internet FAX WG meeting next Monday at the IETF in
    London. Please check them over and send any comments. We have until this
    Friday to fix the slides. I call your attention to the IPP FAX Time Line
    slide 2 which has some projected dates. You may want to revise them.

    The files are also down-loaded at:

    What is IPP FAX?
    Immediate, reliable, secure Internet transfer of high-quality Universal
    Image Format (UIF) (enhanced TIFF/FX) documents

    2910, September 2000
    Most Printer vendors currently shipping IPP
    Internationalization: document charset and language identified
    Immediate capability query, prompt job accept response, and subsequent
    printing completed notification
    IPP is layered on HTTP/1.1 sessions with default port 631
    Uses Transport Layer Security (TLS, RFC 2246)

    Slide 4:
    UIF (Universal Image Format)
    Higher UIF conformance requirements for each TIFF/FX Profile: S, F, J, C, L,
    M:
    200, 300, 600 DPI REQUIRED for B/W
    200, 300 DPI REQUIRED for color
    Resolution not constrained
    ImageWidth not constrained
    MIME type - self describing subset of:
    tiff/image; application=uif; profile=s,f,j,c,l,mcfjls

    Slide 5:
    IPP FAX Protocol
