Hi folks,<br><br>I just posted the first new draft in 4 years of the Printer MIB Multifunction<br>Device Alert Groups (MFD Alerts) specification at:<br> <br><a href="ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/pmp/wd/wd-pmpmfdalerts10-20110131.pdf">ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/pmp/wd/wd-pmpmfdalerts10-20110131.pdf</a> / doc<br clear="all">
- clean copy with line numbers and live table of contents<br><br><a href="ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/pmp/wd/wd-pmpmfdalerts10-20110131-rev.pdf">ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/pmp/wd/wd-pmpmfdalerts10-20110131-rev.pdf</a> / doc<br clear="all">
- redlines copy with line numbers and live table of content<br><br>Notes:<br><br>(1) I downgraded the document status from Prototype to Interim, to reflect<br>the open design issues of non-alignment with the PWG Semantic Model and<br>
PWG Imaging System State and Counter MIB. See "ISSUE" notes in spec.<br><br>(2) I changed external filename and title to align with current PWG practice<br>and the PWG Naming Policy.<br><br>Comments?<br><br>Cheers,<br>
