Compliant Peripheral and Host Adapter Ports. Reference. The standard documentation is available from the IEEE. IEEE 1. 28. 4 Device ID. The IEEE 1. 28. 4 Device ID is used to identify the connected printer and its capabilities. Some printers also provide status information via the ID string. It consists of a sequence of bytes. The first two bytes are the length of the sequence, including the two length bytes. Driver Ieee 1284. 4 Printing Support ChatThe first byte is the most significant byte. Following the two length bytes, the sequence is composed of a series of keys and values of the form key value ,value repeated for each key. As indicated, each key will have one value, and may have more than one value. The minimum necessary keys case sensitive are MANUFACTURER, COMMAND SET, and MODEL. These keys may be abbreviated as MFG, CMD, and MDL respectively. Each implementation will supply these three keys and possibly additional ones as well. Each key and each value is a string of characters. Any characters except colon, comma, and semi colon may be included as part of the key or value string. Any leading or trailing white space SPACEx2. TABx0. 9, VTABx0. B, CRx0. D, NLx0. A, or FFx0. C in the string is ignored by the parsing program but is still counted as part of the overall length of the sequence. All MANUFACTURER, and MODEL key values must remain unique from each manufacturer. MANUFACTURER ACME Manufacturing. COMMAND SET PCL,MPL. MODEL Laser. Beam. COMMENT Anything you like.

The Microsoft Windows COMPATIBLE ID key may have any value that exactly matches an ID value listed in an INF file. Additionally there may be Plug Play IDs assigned to legacy parallel port devices. These IDs may also be specified in the CID field. If the device is not compatible with another device, or the manufacturer does not wish to have a compatible device driver used, there is no need to support this keyword.
