Hi Sean,
Yes UTC would be fine. The currently defined IPP printer attribute date-time-at-creation format is defined in RFC 2579 DateAndTime which uses UTC so IPP is already using UTC for some attributes.
Bes regards,
Rick

Subject: Re: [IPP] Canon request for client's job submission date and time
Email was not sent from a Canon Network!
Do you need the time zone of the client or just a reliable time? Is it possible we can record everything in UTC?

Hi,
For accounting purposes, Canon needs the client's job submission date and time. I cannot find an IPP client attribute that defines this. Therefore Canon is requesting a new IPP Client attribute that defines when the client submitted the job. Note that Canon wants the client's date and time, not the Printer's date and time that you could get from RFC 8011 date-time-at-creation job status attribute since that attribute gives the printer's time zone which might be different from the client's time zone. Please let us know what you think about this request.
Thank you,
Rick
