Bill-san, attended members,

This is Yuko Hosokawa from Canon. 

First of all, thank you for reviewing our slides even though none of Canon
member could attend the meeting.. :-)

I think we have confused you by using the term "non-IPP-attributes"
What we meant was "vendor-specific-attributes" which the client does not know.

If client is to return all the contents of preset including 
"vendor-specific extension" is clearly defined in the document,
yes, we agree with your proposal.

We would like to see the final draft.

Thank you.

We agree with your observation that the document is not clear with respect to  “the  client is responsible for copying the Job Template attributes from the job-presets-supported collection value to the job creation request” and  that  these preset-specified  Job Template attribute values in the Job Creation request may be overwritten by the Client upon input from the User.  The document will be updated so that this is clearly stated.

(except for values changed by the User or Client), regardless of whether
or not  the client displays the Preset collection to the user, the
contents of the selected preset is returned to the printer (except for
any attribute values changed).
