NAME

pd_att_phy_ptr — list of attributes for an HPDPS physical printer object

DESCRIPTION

The following is a list of valid attributes and values for the physical printer object class of HP Distributed Print Services.

1.

Physical printers are used for job validation and scheduling.

2.

The physical printer attributes xxx-supported are used for job validation. Both the xxx-ready and the xxx-supported attributes are used for job scheduling.

3.

An error is issued if a xxx-ready attribute is updated with a value that is not currently assigned to the corresponding xxx-supported attribute.

4.

Physical printers have different attribute sets based on the printer models.

5.

Some of physical printer attributes can be specified in the printer attribute file for the printer. Note that xxx-ready attributes may not be described in the printer attribute file.
