Class CIM_PrintService
extends CIM_Service

The Service that provides support for printing. The basic assumption of the Printing Model is that a PrintService accepts a PrintJob for processing, using its PrintSAP. The Job is then placed on a PrintQueue (that is indicated by the QueueForPrintService association). Printers take Jobs from Queues (indicated by the PrinterServicingQueue association). 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'. An example for a MappingStrings reference to a PWG Standard is 'PWG5101-1.PWG|Section 4 Media Color Names'. An example for a MappingStrings reference to a PWG MIB is 'MIB.PWG|PWG-IMAGING-COUNTER-MIB.icMonitorCompletedJobs'.

AvailableFilters	string[]
			Deprecated	string	No value
			Description	string	Note: The use of this property has been deprecated, due to ambiguity. Print filter information is not available in open standard print protocols (i.e., no known mapping). Deprecated description: Describes the filters that are available within this Print Service. For example, a PrintService can convert a Job that is submitted in one page description language to another, so that it can be passed to an available Printer.
Capabilities	uint16[]
			ArrayType	string	Indexed
			Deprecated	string	No value
			Description	string	Note: The use of this property has been deprecated, due to ambiguity. Instead use PrintServiceCapabilities properties (e.g., Finishings). Deprecated description: An array of integers that indicates the capabilities that are supported by this service. Information such as values 'Duplex Printing' or 'Transparency Printing' is specified in this property.

			ArrayType	string	Indexed
			Deprecated	string	No value
			Description	string	Note: The use of this property has been deprecated, due to ambiguity. Instead use properties defined in the PrintServiceCapabilities class. Deprecated description: An array of free-form strings that provides more detailed explanations for any of the Printer features that are indicated in the Capabilities array. Note, each entry of this array is related to the entry in the Capabilities array that is located at the same index.

LanguagesSupported	uint16[]
			ArrayType	string	Indexed
			Deprecated	string	CIM_PrintService.MimeTypesSupported
			Description	string	Note: The use of this property has been deprecated, due to ambiguity. Instead use MimeTypesSupported. Enumerated print languages are only available in the IETF Printer MIB v1/v2 (RFC 1759/3805) and are not available in open standard print protocols (i.e., no known mapping). Deprecated description: An array that indicates the print languages that are supported by the PrintService. A PrintService can support more languages than those available on the underlying Printer through the use of filters. An administrator can also choose to prevent some languages from being exported by the PrintService. 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).

PaperTypesAvailable	string[]
			Description	string	An array of free-form strings that specifies the types and sizes of paper that can be used by Jobs that are submitted to this PrintService. This list can be different than the paper types that are installed on the Printer, because the PrintService can include support for manually making other types available or only a subset of paper types can be exported using this PrintService. The values of the property SHOULD conform to the requirements of the PWG Media Standardized Names specification [PWG5101.1], which defines the normative values for this property. See older Appendix B 'Media Size Names' and Appendix C 'Media Names' of IETF Printer MIB v2 [RFC3805] which list the values of standardized media names defined in ISO DPA [ISO10175].

Standard values defined in IPP/1.1 (RFC 2911) include: Value 'none' means there are no current state reasons. Value 'paused' means the PrintService has been paused. Value 'toner-empty' means the Printer is out of toner.
			Experimental	boolean	true
