Abstract
This document describes an OPTIONAL extension to the Internet
Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics (RFC 2911, RFC 2910).
This extension allows a client to subscribe to printing related
Events. Subscriptions are modeled as Subscription Objects. The
Subscription Object specifies that when one of the specified Events
occurs, the Printer delivers an asynchronous Event Notification to
the specified Notification Recipient via the specified Push or Pull
Delivery Method (i.e., protocol).
A client associates Subscription Objects with a particular Job by
performing the Create-Job-Subscriptions operation or by submitting a
Job with subscription information. A client associates Subscription
Objects with the Printer by performing a Create-Printer-Subscriptions
operation. Four other operations are defined for Subscription
Objects: Get-Subscriptions-Attributes, Get-Subscriptions, Renew-
Subscription, and Cancel-Subscription.
