Yes, I like Jay's name better. Can we get consensus to add this to the =
current
hrPrinterDetectedErrorState bit extensions? By the way... what's the st=
atus
regarding these extensions and the hrMIB? For that matter, what's the s=
tatus of
the Printer MIB?

I'd agree with this proposal, so long as the name is changed to
better reflect the semantics. Maybe something like:

pmOverduePreventiveMaintenance

I know it's a bit long, but it clearly states the semantics and
scope of the variable.
