10.8 Media Reporting by Object ID (OID)
Media names identified as media IDs are returned to the host for each printer paper source. This
information is reported in Bytes 24-36 of the Execute Order Home State (XOH) Obtain Printer
Characteristics (OPC) Printable Area Self Defining Field (SDF). The tables below define the values
reported to the host.
The printer supports multiple input sources. A Printable Area SDF is returned for each input source in a
single XOH-OPC Acknowledgement Reply. The printer only reports media names for media sizes
supported by the printer input sources.
Below are tables showing common information returned in the replay and specific media IDs returned
sorted by media names.
Additional information may be found in the Mixed Object Content Architecture Reference version 5
(SC31-6802-05).
