Hi Tom,
In the previous (February) and most recent (October) drafts
of the SLP 'printer:' template (for service discovery),
I showed IPP 'printer-name' as equivalent to Printer MIB v2's
'prtGeneralPrinterName' which is CERTAINLY a device name,
since the Printer MIB instruments the 'lump of metal'.
I like your idea that an IPP Printer either contains (as
Interpreters) or is ONE-to-ONE associated with an
IPP Device. If so IPP 'printer-name' is the same as
'device-name'.
Cheers,
