different today. The other aspect I note, and, again, it more in line
with a production print model (like DocuPrint), is your model is a pull-model
from the physical printer out of a print queue; while my model is a push-model
to the physical printer. While I have actually been involved in studies
that show the pull-model is beneficial for production printing, I don’t
yet have the same understanding that a pull model is beneficial for Cloud

Job is on a Printer. That may or may not be true depending the size
and capabilities of printer. This may be true for some office and most production
printers but as you move down is physical printer size there is no need for the
physical printer to ever have or know about a/the Print Job. The
physical printer’s Print Service knows about the Print Job.
One of the advantages of Cloud Print is that all of the “printing smarts”
(jobs, driver, transform, rendering, etc) can actually be in or by a/the cloud based
Print Service and very little, beyond status and base printing functionality
(think processing vendor specific PDL) needs to be in the actual physical printer.
This means the physical printer is not IPP based; it would be the
Print Service (maybe).<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="blue" face="Cambria" size="3"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Cambria;color:blue">This brings up the concept that perhaps
the Cloud Print Manager creates an instance of a Print Protocol front-end (like
IPP) and connects to an internal protocol neutral instance of a Print
Service!!!! Thus, if a Print Client supports a different Print Protocol, a
different front-end is spawned!!! Not one protocol configuration will fit
all solutions but since Cloud supports real-time configurability of services in
general, any Cloud Print Manager/Solution should take advantage of this.
So, no Cloud Printer Manager is tied to a single protocol but will (may) be
required to support different ones.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

traditional sense is “behind the scene” and an implementation
detail within a specific Cloud Print Manager / Solution implementation. Maybe
what you describe below is more like federation of Cloud Print Manager. The
other part of your discussion on queues is about User specific
capabilities. I agree this is needed functionality; the spawning of
a Print Service instance makes this functionality easy. When the Print
Service is spawned, the capability data of that Print Service only includes
those allowed capabilities available for the User. This action is
additive; that is, if there site or department policies restricting the User
capabilities; those capabilities can also be removed for the capability data
for a specific Print Service instance. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

of Cloud Print Job is not from the pull-model (that is, from printers or queues
perspective of checking to see there is a Print Job to do (do I want potentially
thousands upon thousands of physical printers sending internet messages to Cloud
Print Queues of Cloud Print Solution checking to see if there is something to
print!) ) but rather from a push-model from the User. That is User makes
a Print Request to the Print Cloud Manager, a Print Service is selected, if the
specific Print Service does not always exist; then, an instance of the selected
Print Service is spawned based on User permission and site policies, a Print
Client creates the User’s Print Intent from the Print Service capabilities,
the Print Service (including physical printer) status is checked, the Print
Intent is passed to the Print Service to become a Print Job (actually I like
the concept that Print Client to create a Print Job and simply passes it to the
Print Service but this is not generally agreed upon by others), the Print Job
starts, status is reported as required/requested, the Job finishes. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I
would like to see an IPP binding for Cloud printing. I see a significant
advantage to an IPP based solution given the maturity of the protocol and the
industry wide support. I experimented with a cloud based print service
back in 2009. I based my experiments on a WS-Print binding but an IPP
binding would also work. I switched the binding from WS-Print to PWG SM
and included it in v1.160 of the PWG SM Schema. It is easier for me to
write Schema than IPP and easier to display. It is not difficult to move
between the two mappings. The issues I did not address include an
environment agnostic registration and a common security model. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">For
clarity I will refer to the Cloud based Printers as Queues and the devices as
Printers even though in the IPP model they are both implementation of IPP
Printers. In v1.160 of the PWG Semantic Model Schema I included two files
(i.e., PwgCloudPrintQueue.wsdl and PwgCloudPrintQueueMsg.xsd) that have some of
the operations fleshed out a bit. (I dropped a couple things moving from
WS-Print to PWG SM.)<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I
had a couple of assumptions going in.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I
believe that Queues and Printers contain Jobs and are stateful. There is
an association between the Jobs in a Queue and the Jobs being printed on a
Printer. A mapping between them should be maintained on both sides and
carried explicitly in the protocol. I do not believe we should be
implementing “remote markers” where Jobs only reside in the
Cloud. It should be possible for either side to use IPP operations to
query the state of the Printer/Queue and their Jobs.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I
believe it is a requirement that the Cloud Print model must support both Fan
Out and Fan In. In other words it should be possible for a single Cloud
Queue to act as a proxy for other Cloud Queues. This will allow a Printer
to interact with a single Cloud Queue but still service jobs in multiple Cloud
Queues. Taking this approach allows you to do things such as set
different default behaviors for Queues that all map to the same Printer.
(The User does not need a Job Ticket since the intent is associated with the
various Queues.) This approach also allows you to enforce different
capabilities for different users. Users have permission to use specific
Queues. The Queues could prohibit color printing or limit the size of a
Job. <br>
It should also be possible for one Printer to interact with a Queue and
forward Jobs to other Printers. For example a Printer in an enterprises
DMZ could forward jobs to internal Printers or a software only Printer could
front end legacy devices (i.e., proxy).<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The
way I broke the processing of Cloud Jobs up was; Check for Work, Lock the Job,
Update the Job Status, Retrieve the Document(s), and Finish the Job. I
also had another group of things that include; synchronization of Printer and
Job state, Firewall Traversal, Moving from Poll Driven to Event Driven, and
Eventing.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

nice thing about outbound (i.e., Printer to Queue) eventing in a Cloud
environment is that no event subscription needs to be sent. The Printer
knows the Queue is interested in Printer and Job events. Either a
well-known listener port can be used or the location can be part of
registration. Since the Printer knows which jobs came from the Cloud it
can filter the Job events. Whenever a Printer is initialized a printer state
event should be sent to its registered Queues. If the content of the
event is insufficient then a one way message that looks like a
GetPrinterAttributes operation response could be used.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">In
order to move from a poll model to an event driven model we need a mechanism to

protocol. A standardized protocol such as XMPP can be used instead.
The PWG can create PWG specific stanzas that map to existing IPP operations
such as GetPrinterAttributes, GetJobs or GetJobAttributes. A new stanza would
be needed to let the Printer know it’s time to send an IsThereAnyWork
