Class CIM_Printer
extends CIM_LogicalDevice

Capabilities and management of the Printer LogicalDevice. The ABNF for CIM references to PWG Standards and MIBs is in the directory 'ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/general/process' in the file 'pwg-cim-references-format-20060309.txt'. Examples include: (a) a MappingStrings reference to a PWG Standard is 'PWG5101-1.PWG|Section 4 Media Color Names'; (b) a MappingStrings reference to a PWG MIB is 'MIB.PWG|PWG-IMAGING-COUNTER-MIB.icMonitorCompletedJobs'. Note: A Printer shall be associated with at least one of every required component (e.g., PrintMarker) via an instance of the PrinterComponent class. A Printer may be associated with zero or more optional components (e.g., PrintSupply) via an instance of the ConcreteComponent class. See: Model in section 2 of Printer MIB (RFC 3805).

Deprecated description: An array that indicates the print languages that are natively supported Note: For legacy compatiblity reasons, this property is NOT exactly aligned (in order of values) with the authoritative PrtInterpreterLangFamilyTC in the IANA Printer MIB, unlike the newer property PrintInterpreter.LangType (which is exactly aligned with the IANA Printer MIB).
