A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Printing Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): Resource Objects
and Get Resource Operations
Author(s) : T. Hastings, I. McDonald
Filename : draft-ietf-ipp-get-resource-00.txt
Pages : 30
Date : 10-Jul-00
This document is a submission to the Internet Printing Protocol
Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
Comments should be submitted to the ipp at pwg.org mailing list.
This IPP Get Resource document specifies an extension to IPP/1.0
[RFC-2565] [RFC-2566] and IPP/1.1 [IPP-MOD] [IPP-PRO]. This document
extends the current closed IPP object model with a passive
polymorphic object that is intended to satisfy most needs for new
object types in the long-term evolution of IPP via an extensible
object framework.
This document defines: Resource object (passive polymorphic object);
Resource get operations (e.g., Get-Resource-Attributes); Resource
attributes (e.g., 'resource-name'); new Printer attributes (e.g.,
'resource-type-supported'); Resource type of Driver (a morph of the
Resource object); methods for supporting 'driver download' to IPP
Client systems.

Send a message to:
mailserv at ietf.org.
In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipp-get-resource-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
