<p class="MsoNormal">Here is my opinion. I know everyone has one…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the printer is able to print the job, but does not have the media loaded, then accepting the job and holding it until the correct media is loaded seems to me the right thing to do.<br>
Logic here: the issue can be fixed at the printer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you send an A3 job to an A4 printer, then there is no way that this printer ever could print this job correctly, and it should reject it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Logic here: the issue can only be resolved at the workstation. Either change the size, or choose a different printer, or choose an acceptable way to output. Like fit to page size, output on multiple sheets, etc.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi there,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">(I should know the answer to this already but it seems I do not.)<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If a Printer receives a Job Creation operation that includes "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' and also specifies "media" = 'na_letter_8.5x11in', but the Printer does not have that specific media size loaded, how is the Printer to respond?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Appendix C of RFC 8011 says "The Client is requesting that the Job be printed exactly as specified, and if that is not possible, then the Job MUST be rejected rather than processed incorrectly."<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, if the specified media size isn't loaded / available at Job Creation time, can the Printer accept the Job if it "promises" to honor the "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' Job Template attribute by keeping the new Job in the 'pending-held'
state until the requested media size is loaded, or otherwise abort the Job? Is this also acceptable for the "ipp-attribute-fidelity" = 'true' case? This is not "rejecting the Job" strictly speaking. An aborted Job would show up in job accounting while a rejected
Job Creation operation presumably would not.<o:p></o:p></p>
