Abstract
This document provides a printer industry standard SNMP MIB for (1) monitoring the status and progress of print jobs (2) obtaining resource requirements before a job is processed, (3) monitoring resource consumption while a job is being processed and (4) collecting resource accounting data after the completion of a job. This MIB is intended to be implemented (1) in a printer or (2) in a server that supports one or more printers. Use of the object set is not limited to printing. However, support for services other than printing is outside the scope of this Job Monitoring MIB. Future

IESG Note
This MIB module uses an unconventional scheme for modeling management
information (on top of the SNMP model) which is unique to this MIB.
The IESG recommends against using this document as an example for the
design of future MIBs.
The "Printer Working Group" industry consortium is not an IETF
working group, and the IETF does not recognize the Printer Working
Group as a standards-setting body. This document is being published

This document provides a printer industry standard SNMP MIB for (1)
monitoring the status and progress of print jobs (2) obtaining
resource requirements before a job is processed, (3) monitoring
resource consumption while a job is being processed and (4)
collecting resource accounting data after the completion of a job.
This MIB is intended to be implemented (1) in a printer or (2) in a
server that supports one or more printers. Use of the object set is
not limited to printing. However, support for services other than
printing is outside the scope of this Job Monitoring MIB. Future
extensions to this MIB may include, but are not limited to, fax
machines and scanners.
