This are the rezults of testing 3 of the MIB variables that we consider
importants for describing the status of the printer. I have take this 3 variables
because I imagined to be some problems.

Maybe the implementation of some other "critical" variables can be discussed.
"Critical" means that the management application need to recognize the same
events on any printer.

I think that the PWG Bake-off was a success. It was a really an opportunity to
put all the this information together.
