PS> Question about DocumentTypeSupportQuery

    In the ServiceCapabilities interface, the DocumentTypeSupportQuery has two
    parameters

    documentType:String
    targetDeviceIdentifier:String

    The targetDeviceIdentifier may be null or empty if the client only wishes
    to test whether the print service supports a particular documentType. What
    exactly does this mean? (What is the utility?) I'm thinking that a print
    service will support conversions "from and to" and it may be meaningless
    to ask the print service if it supports one side of the transform.
