    In Section 1.3.6. Attributes, XHTML-Print is described to be a
    member of the family of XHTML language. The following description
    in Section 1.3.6, however, suggest that XHTML-Print is not a
    conforming XHTML Host Language.

    "These attributes are treated as discretionary in that a conforming
    printer is not required to support them, but should a printer wish to
    provide that support there are requirements stated for consistency
    in the implementation of extensions."

    Modularization of XHTML specification request that XHTML Host
    Language must meet the following criteria:

    "For each of the W3C-defined modules that are included, all of the
    elements, attributes, types of attributes (including any required
    enumerated value lists), and any required minimal content models
    must be included (and optionally extended) in the document type's
    content model. When content models are extended, all of the elements
    and attributes (along with their types or any required enumerated
    value lists) required in the original content model must continue to
    be required."

    <http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/conformance.html#s_conform_docume
    nt_type>

    I would like to propose that XHTML-Print conforming printer do require
    the support of all attributes.
