    Hi,

    There's quite a lot of detail (and some examples) in the configuration guide
    (see link in Jerry's note below), including a list of "Application Type" values
    (which doesn't include printing or printers, of course). There's also some
    information about interworking with MS NEA stuff.

    Cheers,
    - Ira
