This week's Teleconference will be dedicated to IPP JobX.  The document is available on the PWG server at <A HREF="ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/Semantic-Model/wd-ippjobx10-20030702.doc">ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/Semantic-Model/wd-ippjobx10-20030702.doc</A> (If someone could convert this to PDF I would appreciate it.  I haven't found my copy of distiller to put on my new system yet.) The teleconference is 2 hours long.  It will be run using phone and Webex. Anyone that does not yet have Webex installed should do that before Thursday.  Information for the phone and Webex are included below.  NOTE: New Dial in number and passcode The agenda for the Semantic Model teleconference is: 1) Discuss the print-quality issue (see included notes below) 2) Discuss the document-xxx-supplied changes in JobX 3) Discuss the output-device resolution Pete PS: Bob let me know if there is a problem hosting Webex. ________________________________________________ Dial in Info: Phone Number:(877) 707-6056 (Phone Number for Xerox Employees: 8*594-0077)  PARTICIPANT PASSCODE: 437874# ________________________________________________ webex info: We will also use an on line tool called webex, if you have not used this before, setup up by following the First Time Users instructions.

After some discussion we all pretty much decided that it is not possible to add these new values to the already existing "draft", "normal", and "high" values because of the current definitions of the existing values (high is defined as the highest quality and draft is defined as the lowest quality). It also seemed like what FSG wanted was a way to specify print optimization and not additional levels of print quality. The FSG working group met today, and based on the input from last Tuesday's meeting, we would like to propose the addition of a new attribute, called print-optimize, that is defined as follows:    print-optimize (type2 keyword)       This attribute refines the value specified by the print-quality       attribute.       The standard keyword values are:          'image': optimize for image clarity          'photo': optimize for photo clarity          'text': optimize for text clarity          'text-and-image': optimize for both text and image clarity          'save-toner': optimize for minimal toner usage          'speed': optimize for printing speed We would appreciate your feedback on this proposal including suggestions for additional values. If this proposal looks good, we would like to propose that it be included in the JobX Spec. If the print-optimize attribute is approved by PWG by the end of August, then we can propose that it be added to the JDF 1.2 Spec that is being finalized in early September. Thank you for your time and feedback. Claudia Alimpich IBM Printing Systems Division Boulder CO 303-924-4418 alimpich@us.ibm.com Response to Print Quality Issue: I understand the desire to avoid violating the semantics of the IPP attribute - but adding these enumerations to print-quality does not feel as objectionable to me as splitting a single semantic concept into two different attributes.  If this is the precedent we take for extending the semantic model, I'm worried that we'll end up with an increasingly confusing and complex.  I would rather we take the minor hit and fix the high & draft definitions in the semantic model than create another ~equivalent attribute with a whole bunch of special semantic rules (e.g. - what should the service do if print-quality=high and print-optimize=save-toner?). bt --------------------------------------------------- Bob Taylor                                        Senior Architect                            IPG Strategic Technology Development  Hewlett-Packard Co.       <A HREF="mailto:bobt@hp.com">mailto:bobt@hp.com</A>                        phone: 360.212.2625/T212.2625                    fax: 208.730-5111                 ---------------------------------------------------   </BODY> </HTML>
