       sage. The request-id argument is the request ID from the original IPP request, typically 1. The limit
       argument is the limit value from the original IPP request - 0 means no limit. The user-id argument is
       the  requesting-user-name  value  from  the original IPP request.  Finally, the options argument is a
       space-delimited list of attributes ("name=value  name=value  ...")  that  were  passed  in  with  the
       request.  Currently  cups-deviced looks for the requested-attributes attribute and tailors the output
       accordingly.
