Abstract
A utility that defines additional attributes that would cater to a user's needs provides dynamically extended printing capabilities. The system architecture allows the information to be pushed down transparently to the receiving end, which understands the semantics of the given information. One possible function of the system administrators can be to define information to monitor for accounting purposes. The utility allows additional printer features to be incorporated without disrupting the existing system.
