The sequences of different operations that could be used to achieve particular tasks are covered in IPP Implementor's Guide v2
(http://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/candidates/cs-ippig20-20150821-5100.19.pdf).
However, it is still "legal" for a Client to not do a Validate-Job or for a Client to submit the Create-Job unchanged from the Validate-Job even if the Printer rejects the Validate-Job.

>> If a Printer receives a Job Creation operation that includes "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' and also specifies "media" = 'na_letter_8.5x11in', but the Printer does not have that specific media size loaded, how is the Printer to respond?

>> However, if the specified media size isn't loaded / available at Job Creation time, can the Printer accept the Job if it "promises" to honor the "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' Job Template attribute by keeping the new Job in the 'pending-held' state until the requested media size is loaded, or otherwise abort the Job? Is this also acceptable for the "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' case? This is not "rejecting the Job" strictly speaking. An aborted Job would show up in job accounting while a rejected Job Creation operation presumably would not.
