    Hi,

    No, there is not a public list of printers supporting the
    Job MIB (RFC 2707).

    Many/most new network printers support IPP/1.0 or IPP/1.1.

    BUT - many/most implementations of IPP do NOT support the
    monitoring of print jobs submitted by any other protocol
    (NetWare, AppleTalk, SMB, etc.).

    That's the current state of the art.

    Cheers,
    - Ira (co-editor of Printer MIB v2, RFC 3805)

    Hello,

    Does a list of Job MIB Implementations in Printers exist meanwhile?

    It seems to me that currently nearly no printer incorporates the Job
    Monitoring MIB.

    Is instead IPP favored for Job Monitoring?

    Thanks,
