A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Printing Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Requirements for an Internet Printing Protocol
Author(s) : F. Wright
Filename : draft-ietf-ipp-req-01.txt
Pages : 55
Date : 16-Oct-97
This document is one of a set of documents which together
describe all aspects of a new Internet Printing Protocol (IPP).
IPP is an application level protocol that can be used for
distributed printing on the Internet. The protocol is heavily
influenced by the printing model introduced in the Document
Printing Application (ISO/IEC 10175 DPA) standard. Although DPA
identifies the both end user and administrative features, IPP is
initially focused only on the end user functionality.
The full set of IPP documents include:
Requirements for an Internet Printing Protocol
Internet Printing Protocol/1.0: Model and Semantics
Internet Printing Protocol/1.0: Protocol Specification
Rationale for the Structure and Model and Protocol for the
Internet Printing Protocol

Internet-Drafts are also available by mail.
Send a message to: mailserv at ds.internic.net. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipp-req-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
