> 2. Can someone please describe the meaning of "xxx-select vs.
> xxx-supported"?
This terminology comes from any of the DPA attributes. A job object may
have an attribute called: media-select. This attribute's value indicates to
the Printer, what media to use for this job. This attribute better have
some relationship with Printer object attribute called: media-supported.
We have many attributes already defined for IPP like this, however they
are not called xxx-select or xxx-supported, but that is what they mean.
Tom H has a proposal to do away with BOTH attributes and just come up
with ONE for each pair. The syntax might be different depending on
whether it is in a Job object or Printer object, but the attribute name is the
same and the values from the same domain.
