    Subject: IPP> About notification

    Hello all,
            Could someone please clarify these doubts pertaining to
    Notification operations:

            1>In the Print-job request, does the sequence in which Job
    template attributes and Subscription attributes occur matter?

    TH> The Subscription Attribute Group MUST come after the Job Attribute
    Group, since all operations indicate the order that groups MUST be sent.

            2>I have understood the following attributes in Send-Notification
    request [indp: delivery method] to be mandatory. Are these correct?

    TH> Yes, except as noted.

            Group1: Operation attributes: attribute-charset
                                            attribute-natural-language
                                            notification-recipient-uri

            Group2 to N:Notification attributes:
                                            notify-subscription-id
                                            printer-uri
    TH> In order to be consistent with Subscription object names and to not have
    duplicate attribute names in two different objects, we agreed to put a
    "notify-" prefix on this attribute making it: "notify-printer-uri" for both
    the Subscription object and what is sent in the Event Notification content
    (for INDP).

                                            trigger-event
    TH> We agreed to rename this: "notify-trigger-event" so that all Event
    Notification content attributes start with "notify-", unless they are copied
    from some other object (other than the Subscription object).

                                            printer-up-time
                                            job-id
                                            job-state
                                            job-state-reasons
    TH> The 3 above are only for job events.
    TH> And "job-impressions-completed" is MUST for 'job-completed' and
    'job-progress' events
                                            printer-state
                                            printer-state-reasons
                                            printer-is-accepting-jobs
    TH> The 3 above are only for printer events.

            Kindly let me know if there is any attribute missing/redundant.

    TH> If the Subscribing client supplied notify-user-data (octetString(63))
    you MUST send: notify-user-data

    TH> There are also the following RECOMMENDED and OPTIONAL attributes for the
    Notification Source to support in the Send-Notifications content:

                                  notify-text RECOMMENDED
                                  notify-sequence-number RECOMMENDED
                                  printer-current-time REQUIRED if you
    support it

    TH> Also if the Printer implementation supports the OPTIONAL
    "notify-attributes" Subscription Template attribute, then the Printer
    includes the additional Job and Printer attributes that it supports in Event
    Notification as well.

        

    thank you,
    Vinod
