Ira, there is no attribute with the name 'natural-language-supported' in
IPP/1.0. An IPP Printer MUST accept any natural language and any Natural
Language Override in request attributes. Or are you talking about "
document-natural-language"? Again, there is no "
document-natural-language-supported" attribute in IPP/1.0.
