I think we have a consistency problem with attributes job-impressions a=
nd
job-media-sheets. The inconsistency exists in both JMP and IPP. Most at=
tributes
that reflect a REQUESTED value are based on the "unit" of one copy of t=
he job.
For instance, job-impressions (requested) is specifically PER COPY. She=
ets,
however, for some reason, is defined to pertain to all the sheets in al=
l the
copies in the job. There seems to be no good reason for this and I requ=
est that
we adjust sheets back to a unit base like other attributes. If an appli=
cation
wants to calculate load they can multiply sheets by copies... like with=
any
other requested attribute.
