[IPP] How to send a job to printer's internal memory to have it available for reprinting via IPP

Hi all,

I have a user (Neil in CC) in Fedora (see comment 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2095755#c22 ) who has a 
Kyocera printer, which is capable of driverless printing, however he 
sticks with classic driver, because it can save the print job data 
directly into the printer's memory, and user can reprint the job 
directly on the printer (he doesn't want to reprint from CUPS interface 
on PC).

Is something similar doable via driverless printing over IPP 2.0+ via 
CUPS? Or is there a standard defining such functionality?

I can imagine a similar behavior with IPP can be achieved if the printer 
has a job log and saves the job files for some time (just as cupsd 
does), and provides a button in menu or somewhere which will reprint the 
job - but this whole would have to be implemented in printer's firmware...

Thank you in advance!


Zdenek
