Pete,
I checked 5100.9 and we aren't saying anything about the ordering of printer-alert and printer-alert-description. Seems like we'll need to do an errata for that at some point.
Ira, I'll add the necessary verbiage to the text you supplied and post it in the version of JPS3 for the F2F...

However each attribute description of this type may specify that the values MUST be in a certain order for that attribute.” I assume that the description will detail the ordering including the mapping to the Printer MIB and any ordering relationship between attributes.
