1. Pg. 15 - With the new definition of Active, Busy/Temporarily Unavailable
in the "table" below should probably be changed to Busy/Active
2. Pg. 57 - In the new definition of phone, fax and e-mail conventions for
Operator and Service Person... we specify phone: fax: email:. I've been
told the "colon" is not in international character in that it is not in
the minimum Unicode set. I'm checking on this but, meanwhile, do we care
in this instance?
Also, should we specify in the convention what to do if you have a phone
and e-mail but no fax (i.e. :: ?).
3. Pg. 58 - The description for prtGeneralAdminName makes it sound like the
name of the Administrator. I probably missed something, here, but I thought
this was the name assigned by the administrator to the printer! Anyway...
if it really is the name of the administrator, then shouldn't it be in
the "Responsible Parties" group?
4. Pg. 58 - prtGeneralSerialNumber has SYNTAX of PresentOnOff. This must
be an error
5. Pg. 58 - prtAlertCriticalEvents. Should we clarify whether this value
is supposed to persist or reset across power cycles?
Also, the prtAlertEvent stuff we added seems like it would be much more
useful if we also added something like...
prtAlertMaxTableSize. Then, knowing the max number of entries a given
printer could store and, keeping track of the new alert counters, it could
be determined if any alerts were lost. Polling could presumable be adjusted.
This may have to be in a future revision.
6. No one seems to have written any prtChannelInformation for chPortTCP (37/38)
It seems like the port number would be very useful here. May I suggest?
Port
Keyword: "Port"
Syntax HexString
Status Mandatory
Multiplicity Multiple
