The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics' <draft-sweet-rfc2911bis-10.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-09-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. This is the Second IETF LC to explicitly call out DownRefs (see below). Abstract The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is an application level protocol for distributed printing using Internet tools and technologies. This document describes a simplified model consisting of abstract objects, attributes, and operations that is independent of encoding and transport. The model consists of several objects including Printers and Jobs. Jobs optionally support multiple Documents. IPP semantics allow End Users and Operators to query Printer capabilities, submit print Jobs, inquire about the status of print Jobs and Printers, and cancel, hold, and release print Jobs. IPP semantics also allow Operators to pause and resume Jobs and Printers. Security, internationalization, and directory issues are also addressed by the model and semantics. The IPP message encoding and transport are described in IPP/1.1: Encoding and Transport [RFC2910bis]. This document obsoletes RFCs 2911, 3381, and 3382. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sweet-rfc2911bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sweet-rfc2911bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
