The web has shifted the printing paradigm from mainly printing from current
running applications to a more balanced approach between two printing
paradigms: printing from the application and printing from a previously
produced document or file.
We need to be striving to provide the same functionality to the end-user
for both printing paradigms with IPP.
So I suggest adding a requirement something like:
IPP shall provide the same functionality to the end-user for print
time choices of stored documents as the end-user has for printing
directly from an application.
For example, the user can choose number of copies, two-sided, stapling,
number-up, and page ranges, etc. whether printing from the application
that has the entire document or printing from a file or document that
has been stored on the web or in a document repository.
Commments?
