Abstract
This document defines a schema, object classes and attributes, for
printers and printer services, for use with directories that support
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol v3 (LDAP-TS). This document is
based on the printer attributes listed in Appendix E of Internet
Printing Protocol/1.1 (IPP) (RFC 2911). A few additional printer
attributes are based on definitions in the Printer MIB (RFC 1759).

RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
1. Introduction
This document defines several object classes to provide Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol v3 [LDAP-TS] applications with flexible
options in defining printer information using LDAP schema. Classes
are provided for defining directory entries with common printer
information as well as for extending existing directory entries with
SLPv2 [RFC2608], IPP/1.1 [RFC2911], and LPR [RFC1179] specific
information.
The schema defined in this document is based on the printer
attributes listed in Appendix E 'Generic Directory Schema' of
Internet Printing Protocol/1.1 (IPP) [RFC2911]. A few additional
printer attributes are based on definitions in the Printer MIB
[RFC1759].
The schema defined in this document is technically aligned with the
stable IANA-registered 'service:printer:' v2.0 template [SLP-PRT],
for compatibility with already deployed Service Location Protocol
(SLPv2) [RFC2608] service advertising and discovery infrastructure.
The attribute syntaxes are technically aligned with the
'service:printer:' v2.0 template - therefore simpler types are
sometimes used (for example, 'DirectoryString' [RFC2252] rather than
'labeledURI' [RFC2079] for the 'printer-uri' attribute).
Please send comments directly to the authors at the addresses listed
in Section 13 "Authors' Addresses".
1.1. Rationale for using DirectoryString Syntax
The attribute syntax 'DirectoryString' (UTF-8 [RFC2279]) defined in
[RFC2252] is specified for several groups of string attributes that
are defined in this document:
1) URI
- printer-uri, printer-xri-supported, printer-more-info
The UTF-8 encoding is forward compatible with any future
deployment of (UTF-8 based) IRI (Internationalized Resource
Identifiers) [W3C-IRI] currently being developed by the W3C
Internationalization Working Group.
2) Description
- printer-name, printer-location, printer-info,
printer-make-and-model
Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 3]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
The UTF-8 encoding supports descriptions in any language,
conformant with the "IETF Policy on Character Sets and Languages"
[RFC2277].
Note: The printer-natural-language-configured attribute contains
a language tag [RFC3066] for these description attributes (for
example, to support text-to-speech conversions).
3) Keyword
- printer-compression-supported, printer-finishings-supported,
printer-media-supported, printer-media-local-supported,
printer-print-quality-supported
The UTF-8 encoding is compatible with the current IPP/1.1
[RFC2911] definition of the equivalent attributes, most of which
have the IPP/1.1 union syntax 'keyword or name'. The keyword
attributes defined in this document are extensible by
site-specific or vendor-specific 'names' which behave like new
'keywords'
Note: In IPP/1.1, each value is strongly typed over-the-wire as
either 'keyword' or 'name'. This union selector is not preserved
in the definitions of these equivalent LDAP attributes.
1.2. Rationale for using caseIgnoreMatch
The EQUALITY matching rule 'caseIgnoreMatch' defined in [RFC2252] is
specified for several groups of string attributes that are defined in
this document:
1) URI
These URI attributes specify EQUALITY matching with
'caseIgnoreMatch' (rather than with 'caseExactMatch') in order to
conform to the spirit of [RFC2396], which requires case
insensitive matching on the host part of a URI versus case
sensitive matching on the remainder of a URI.
These URI attributes follow existing practice of supporting case
insensitive equality matching for host names in the
associatedDomain attribute defined in [RFC1274].
Either equality matching rule choice would be a compromise:
a) case sensitive whole URI matching may lead to false negative
matches and has been shown to be fragile (given deployed client
applications that 'pretty up' host names displayed and
transferred in URI);
Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 4]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
b) case insensitive whole URI matching may lead to false positive
matches, although it is a dangerous practice to publish URI that
differ only by case (for example, in the path elements).
2) Description
Case insensitive equality matching is more user-friendly for
description attributes.
3) Keyword
Case insensitive equality matching is more user-friendly for
keyword attributes.
1.3. Rationale for using caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
The SUBSTR matching rule 'caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch' defined in
[RFC2252] is specified for several groups of string attributes that
are defined in this document:
1) URI
These URI attributes follow existing practice of supporting case
insensitive equality matching for host names in the
associatedDomain attribute defined in [RFC1274].
2) Description
Support for case insensitive substring matching is more
user-friendly for description attributes.
3) Keyword
Support for case insensitive substring matching is more
user-friendly for keyword attributes.
2. Terminology and Conventions
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119].
Schema definitions are provided using LDAPv3 [LDAP-TS] description
formats. Definitions provided here are formatted (line wrapped) for
readability.
Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 5]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
3. Definition of Object Classes
We define the following LDAP object classes for use with both generic
printer related information and services specific to SLPv2 [RFC2608],
IPP/1.1 [RFC2911], and LPR [RFC1179].
slpServicePrinter - auxiliary class for SLP registered printers
printerAbstract - abstract class for all printer classes
printerService - structural class for printers
printerServiceAuxClass - auxiliary class for printers
printerIPP - auxiliary class for IPP printers
printerLPR - auxiliary class for LPR printers
The following are some examples of how applications may choose to use
these classes when creating directory entries:
1) Use printerService for directory entries containing common
printer information.
2) Use both printerService and slpServicePrinter for directory
entries containing common printer information for SLP registered
printers.
3) Use printerService, printerLPR and printerIPP for directory
entries containing common printer information for printers that
support both LPR and IPP.
4) Use printerServiceAuxClass and object classes not defined by this
document for directory entries containing common printer
information. In this example, printerServiceAuxClass is used for
extending other structural classes defining printer information
with common printer information defined in this document.
Refer to Section 4 for definition of attribute types referenced by
these object classes. We use attribute names instead of OIDs in
object class definitions for clarity. Some attribute names described
in [RFC2911] have been prefixed with 'printer-' as recommended in
[RFC2926] and [SLP-PRT].

Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 6]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
This auxiliary class defines Service Location Protocol (SLPv2)
[RFC2608] specific information. It should be used with a structural
class such as printerService. It may be used to create new or extend
existing directory entries with SLP 'service:printer' abstract
service type information as defined in [SLP-PRT]. This object class
is derived from 'slpService', the parent class for all SLP services,
defined in [RFC2926].

This abstract class defines printer information. It is a base class
for deriving other printer related classes, such as, but not limited
to, classes defined in this document. It defines a common set of
printer attributes that are not specific to any one type of service,
protocol or operating system.

This structural class defines printer information. It is derived
from class printerAbstract and thus inherits common printer
attributes. This class can be used with or without auxiliary classes
to define printer information. Auxiliary classes can be used to
extend the common printer information with protocol, service or
operating system specific information.
Note: When extending other structural classes with auxiliary
classes, printerService should not be used.

Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 8]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
This auxiliary class defines Internet Printing Protocol (IPP/1.1)
[RFC2911] information. It should be used with a structural class
such as printerService. It is used to extend structural classes with
IPP specific printer information.

MUST ( printer-name )
MAY ( printer-aliases)
)
This auxiliary class defines LPR [RFC1179] information. It should be
used with a structural class such as printerService. It is used to
identify directory entries that support LPR.
4. Definition of Attribute Types
The following attribute types are referenced by the object classes
defined in Section 3.
The following attribute types reference syntax OIDs defined in
Section 6 of [RFC2252] (see Section 5 'Definition of Syntaxes'
below).
The following attribute types reference matching rule names (instead
of OIDs) for clarity (see Section 6 below). For optional attributes,
if the printer information is not known, the attribute value should
not be set. In the following definitions, referenced matching rules
are defined in Section 8 of [RFC2252] and/or Section 2 of [RFC3698]
(see Section 6 'Definition of Matching Rules' below).
The following table is a summary of the attribute names defined by
this document and their corresponding names from [RFC2911]. Some
attribute names described in [RFC2911] have been prefixed with
'printer-' as recommended in [RFC2926], to address the flat namespace
for LDAP identifiers.

If the printer-xri-supported LDAP attribute is implemented, then this
printer-uri value should be listed in printer-xri-supported.
Values of URI should conform to [RFC2396], although URI schemes may
be defined which do not conform to [RFC2396] (see [RFC2717] and
[RFC2718]).
Note: LDAP application clients should not attempt to use malformed
URI values read from this attribute. LDAP administrative clients
should not write malformed URI values into this attribute.
Note: For SLP registered printers, the LDAP printer-uri attribute
should be set to the value of the SLP-registered URL of the printer,
for interworking with SLPv2 [RFC2608] service discovery.
Note: See Sections 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 for rationale for design
choices.
4.2. printer-xri-supported

SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
)
A list of XRI (extended resource identifiers) supported by this
printer. Each value of this list should consist of a URI (uniform
resource identifier) followed by (optional) authentication and
security fields.
Values of URI should conform to [RFC2396], although URI schemes may
be defined which do not conform to [RFC2396] (see [RFC2717] and
[RFC2718]).
Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 11]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
Note: LDAP application clients should not attempt to use malformed
URI values read from this attribute. LDAP administrative clients
should not write malformed URI values into this attribute.
Note: This attribute is based on 'printer-uri-supported', 'uri-
authentication-supported', and `'uri-security-supported' (called the
'Three Musketeers' because they are parallel ordered attributes)
defined in IPP/1.1 [RFC2911]. This attribute unfolds those IPP/1.1
attributes and thus avoids the ordering (and same number of values)
constraints of the IPP/1.1 separate attributes.
Defined keywords for fields include:
'uri' (IPP 'printer-uri-supported')
'auth' (IPP 'uri-authentication-supported')
'sec' (IPP 'uri-security-supported')
A missing 'auth' field should be interpreted to mean 'none'. Per
IPP/1.1 [RFC2911], defined values of the 'auth' field include:
'none' (no authentication for this URI)
'requesting-user-name' (from operation request)
'basic' (HTTP/1.1 Basic [RFC2617])
'digest' (HTTP/1.1 Basic, [RFC2617])
'certificate' (from certificate)
A missing 'sec' field should be interpreted to mean 'none'. Per
IPP/1.1 [RFC2911], defined values of the 'sec' field include:
'none' (no security for this URI)
'ssl3' (Netscape SSL3)
'tls' (IETF TLS/1.0, [RFC2246])
Each XRI field should be delimited by '<'. For example:
'uri=ipp://foo.com< auth=digest< sec=tls<'
'uri=lpr://bar.com< auth=none< sec=none<'
'uri=mailto:printer@foobar.com< auth=none< sec=none<'
Note: The syntax and delimiter for this attribute are aligned with
the equivalent attribute in the 'service:printer:' v2.0 template
[SLP-PRT]. Whitespace is permitted after (but not before) the
delimiter '<'. Note that this delimiter differs from printer-
resolution-supported.
Note: See Sections 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 for rationale for design
choices.

Values of this attribute should be specified in the language
specified in printer-natural-language-configured (for example, to
support text-to-speech conversions), although the printer's name may
be specified in any language. This name may be the last part of the
printer's URI or it may be completely unrelated. This name may
contain characters that are not allowed in a conventional URI (see
[RFC2396]).
4.4. printer-natural-language-configured

Also, a possible natural language for printer string attributes set
by operator, system administrator, or manufacturer. Also, the
(declared) natural language of the printer-name, printer-location,
printer-info, and printer-make-and-model attributes of this printer.
Values of language tags should conform to "Tags for the
Identification of Languages" [RFC3066]. For example:
'en-us' (English as spoken in the US)
'fr-fr' (French as spoken in France)
For consistency with IPP/1.1 [RFC2911], language tags in this
attribute should be lowercase normalized.

8. Internationalization Considerations
All text string attributes defined in this document of syntax
[RFC2279], as required by [RFC2252].
A language tag [RFC3066] for all of the text string attributes
defined in this document is contained in the printer-natural-
language-configured attribute.
Fleming & McDonald Informational [Page 28]
RFC 3712 LDAP Schema for Printer Services February 2004
Therefore, all object classes defined in this document conform to the
"IETF Policy on Character Sets and Languages" [RFC2277].
9. Security Considerations
See [RFC2829] for detailed guidance on authentication methods for
LDAP. See [RFC2830] for detailed guidance of using TLS/1.0 [RFC2246]
to supply connection confidentiality and data integrity for LDAP
sessions.
As with any LDAP schema, it is important to protect specific entries
and attributes with the appropriate access control. It is
particularly important that only administrators can modify entries
defined in this LDAP printer schema. Otherwise, an LDAP client might
be fooled into diverting print service requests from the original
printer (or spooler) to a malicious intruder's host system, thus
exposing the information in printed documents.
For additional security considerations of deploying printers in an
IPP environment, see Section 8 of [RFC2911].
