10. Copyright © 2010, Printer Working Group. All rights reserved. 10 Proven Activity PWG has produced or been involved in many of the standards used by electronic printing industry Developed standards in the following areas: Device management (Printer MIB, Finisher MIB etc.) Hardware level interface (IEEE 1284) Transport layer interface (IEEE 1394.3) Datastream standards (XHTML-Print) Application layer print/scan and management protocol standards (IPP, PSI, etc.) Standardized model of printer services consistent with ISO 10175 – DPA used by virtually all current print protocols over multiple interfaces and operating systems

20. Copyright © 2010, Printer Working Group. All rights reserved. 20 Benefits to SC28 PWG has a strong heritage of developing imaging systems management and services standards Recognition within the industry PWG standards are normatively referenced by several other imaging system public standards CIP4 Job Definition Format Bluetooth Print Profiles UPnP Enhanced Print Linux Foundation Open Printing Job Ticket API PWG can readily provide significant imaging system expertise on work activity within SC28 Opportunity of considering PWG body of work for adoption as SC28 standards

21. Copyright © 2010, Printer Working Group. All rights reserved. 21 Summary Liaison status for PWG would create an opportunity to develop a more synergistic relationship with JTC1/SC28 … to the benefit of imaging systems and office equipment standardization
