It is not the intend of these changes to mandate a B&W printer "learn" to
print in color -- shades of gray are completely acceptable. However, the
printer must fully parse and implement the colors to the best of it's
ability.

Subject: XP> (Inline?) Image Data and the background-color property
Hello,
A couple more of quick questions regarding the New Orleans PWG meeting
update slides:
One of the bullets on slide #12 (XHTML-Print Review) reads:
- Image data within the object element need not be supported.
Since it would be difficult for a minimally conforming printer to support
inline image data due to memory constraints, should that bullet read
"Inline" image data (as opposed to referenced)?
And the second question/clarification:
On slide 6 (CSS Print Review) it states that we are adding background-color
(and the background shortcut) property as a required CSS property. I just
want to clarify that this is for the Enhanced CSS Extensions. Correct?
We don't want to force a minimally conforming printer to support color. A
good example for this could be a mono laser printer. Second, the BT and
UPnP conformance tests only use these properties in their enhanced layout
tests.
