the formal announcement of PWG Last Call for the PWG Command Set Format for

“Stable” draft has been extensively reviewed and represents
consensus of the WIMS/PMP Working Group. Notice from Dell of implementation,
received in January, satisfies the prototyping requirement. The workgroup has
selected a 30-day last call period, ending on 25 February 2010 and overlapping
the February Plenary. It is intended that comments relative to this last
call be addressed during the WIMS/PMP face-to-face meeting being
held in conjunction with the plenary, although all comments received any time
during the last call period will be addressed after the last call period
is ended, according to the documented PWG process.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt'>Because the IEEE1284 Device
ID is used in many places and in more current contexts than the
1284 interface, this document will have a effect on virtually all printer
products. It is strongly recommended that all parties making printers or
interfacing software review this document. Note that, according to the
PWG process:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Call represents a final opportunity for issues to be raised against a document.

draft for both technical and editorial content and to provide comments to the
Working Group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
