<bigger>We have approved registration 001 mediumTypeConsumed and
mediumSizeConsumed
attributes for use with the PWG Job Monitoring MIB.
The Last Call period received no comments. Consequently, I updated the
status
of the registrations and moved the files to the approved sub-directory:
ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/approved-registrations/001-medium-xxx-consumed.docftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/approved-registrations/001-medium-xxx-consumed.pdfftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/approved-registrations/001-medium-xxx-consumed.txt
These two new attributes now have the same status as attributes in the
approved PWG Job Monitoring MIB which is in:
ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-printmib-job-monitor-07.txt
Here is the text copy of the approved registration:
Subj: JMP proposal to register mediumTypeConsumed and
mediumSizeConsumed
From: Tom Hastings
Date: 4/29/98
File: 001-medium-xxx-consumed.doc
Status: APPROVED, Wednesday, April 29, 1998: No comments were
received
during the Last Call. This proposal was reviewed at the PWG meeting,
on
Friday, April 10, 1998. It was agreed to send it out for a two-week WG
Last Call. Any comments are due by Monday, April 27, 1998.
Problem: The Job Monitoring MIB V1.0 does not have a way for an
accounting program to charge for media type or media size consumed.
The
current mediumConsumed in the name of the medium, which may or may not
be known to the accounting program.
Suggested Solution: This proposal to register two new accounting
attributes to be used with the approved PWG Job Monitoring MIB
standard.
These new attributes count media by medium type name and medium size
name. The current PWG Job Monitoring MIB specifications for
"mediumRequested" (medium type enum, medium name and medium size name)
and mediumConsumed" (medium name) are:
mediumRequested(170), JmMediumTypeTC
AND/OR
JmJobStringTC (SIZE(0..63))
INTEGER: MULTI-ROW: The type
AND/OR
OCTETS: MULTI-ROW: the name of the medium that is
required
by the job.
NOTE - The name (JmJobStringTC) values correspond to the
prtInputMediaName object in the Printer MIB [print-mib] and
the values of the IPP 'media' attribute.
mediumConsumed(171), Integer32 (-2..2147483647)
AND
JmJobStringTC (SIZE(0..63))
INTEGER: MULTI-ROW: The number of sheets
AND
OCTETS: MULTI-ROW: the name of the medium that has been
consumed so far whether those sheets have been processed on
one side or on both.
This attribute SHALL have both Integer32 and OCTET STRING
(represented as JmJobStringTC) values.
NOTE - The name (JmJobStringTC) values correspond to the
name values of the prtInputMediaName object in the Printer
MIB [print-mib].

Suggested text for the registration of the mediumTypeConsumed and
mediumSizeConsumed attributes:
mediumTypeConsumed(174), Integer32 (-2..2147483647)
AND
JmJobStringTC (SIZE(0..63))
INTEGER: MULTI-ROW: The number of sheets of the indicated
medium type that has been consumed so far whether those
sheets have been processed on one side or on both
AND
OCTETS: MULTI-ROW: the name of that medium type.
This attribute SHALL have both Integer32 and OCTET STRING
(represented as JmJobStringTC) values.
NOTE - The type name (JmJobStringTC) values correspond to
the type name values of the prtInputMediaType object in the
Printer MIB [print-mib]. Values are: 'stationery',
'transparency', 'envelope', etc. These medium type names
correspond to the enum values of JmMediumTypeTC used in the
mediumRequested attribute.
mediumSizeConsumed(175), Integer32 (-2..2147483647)
AND
JmJobStringTC (SIZE(0..63))
INTEGER: MULTI-ROW: The number of sheets of the indicated
medium size that has been consumed so far whether those
sheets have been processed on one side or on both
AND
OCTETS: MULTI-ROW: the name of that medium size.
This attribute SHALL have both Integer32 and OCTET STRING
(represented as JmJobStringTC) values.
NOTE - The size name (JmJobStringTC) values correspond to
the size name values in the Printer MIB [print-mib]
Appendix
B. Values are: 'letter', 'a', 'iso-a4', 'jis-b4', etc.
