1 Introduction

   This document defines four new Job Description attributes for
   monitoring job progress to be registered as OPTIONAL extensions to
   IPP/1.0 [RFC 2566] and IPP/1.1 [RFC 2911].  These attributes are drawn
   from the PWG Job Monitoring MIB [RFC 2707].  See section 10 for a
   description of the base IPP documents.  The new Job Description
   attributes are:

      "job-collation-type" (type2 enum)
      "sheet-completed-copy-number" (integer(0:MAX))
      "sheet-completed-document-number" (integer(0:MAX))
      "impressions-completed-current-copy" (integer(0:MAX))

   This document also defines a new "sheet-collate" Job Template
   attribute to control sheet collation and to help with the
   interpretation of the job progress attributes.  These new attributes
   may also be used by themselves in combination with the IPP/1.1 "job-
   impressions-completed" attribute, as useful job progress monitoring
   attributes and/or may be passed in an IPP Notification (see [ipp-
   ntfy]).
