<br>
I see the logic of your comments.<br>
<br>
But IPP/2.0 Second Edition *did* specifically resolve this<br>
"quality" versus "resolution" question based on quite a lot<br>
of mailing list and face-to-face discussion. This is stated<br>
in on page 21, section 6.2, item 8 of PWG 5100.12.<br>
<br>
So a conforming IPP Printer has to behave accordingly.<br>
<br>
We can add more discussion in IPP JPS3, if that seems<br>
appropriate, but we really can't reverse the IPP/2.0 SE, <br>
because that would not be backward compatible.<br>
<br>

simple and sophisticated user-centric model. A simple user-centric model
will always use the “quality” setting and, for added “control”, will set
“content type” to get the desired output. Sophisticated users will
want to control the finer details and, thus, may want a specific
resolution. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

operations: in general, no print vendor is going to use simpler/faster
dithers or color-transform or not perform print row interleaving, if it reduces
the overall printed quality of the output simply because the user set quality
setting to draft/normal/high in a Print Client. There would be
insignificant amount of processing required; no need to support multiple
dither/color transforms routines; and an unnoticeable amount of additional (if
any) overall print time. If a user specifies a resolution versus
quality; then, saving ink was not his/her intent; he/she wants a specific
resolution for his/her specific reason. While bi-directional versus
uni-directional printing are affected by quality settings; print service
internal selection (not user set) would also use content-type (for example;
high-quality text (bi) versus high-quality photo(uni)) which, of course, bi
versus uni, can also be done as a function of resolution and the content-type.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
