Object

scalar optional r/w Enumeration
This object is used to inquire about and to control the 'power
state' of the device. The exact meaning of each enumeration may
vary from device to device, but the general interpretation is
as follows: ePowerStateAwake: The device is idle (immediately
ready to process a job) or processing a job.
ePowerStatePowerSave: The device is in a low power state and
will not be immediately available to process an incoming job. A
'warm-up time' of several seconds can be expected.
ePowerStateSleep: The device is in a sleep state. It uses less
power than when in the power save state. It can also be
expected to need a substantially longer warm-up time than when
in the power save state. ePowerStateOff: The device is powered
off. Note that when the device is powered off then SNMP/PML
requests obviously cannot be honored. Therefore ePowerStateOff
will likely never be returned from a PML get operation.
However, ePowerStateOff could potentially be used in a PML set
operation to power down the device if it has a
software/firmware controllable power switch. For a given
product it may not be possible to have the device enter the
requested state due to the current state of the device. E.g.,
it may not be possible to enter the power save state if the
device currently is in the sleep state. In this case a set
operation will have an execution outcome of
<ErrorActionCanNotBePerformedNow>. The same execution outcome
can be expected if the device is processing a job and an
attempt is made to e.g. bring the device into the power save
state or the sleep state. A get operation on the object returns
the current power state of the device. While the device is
transitioning from one state to another one of the values
ePowerStateTransitioningToAwake,
ePowerStateTransitioningToPowerSave,
ePowerStateTransitioningToSleep or
ePowerStateTransitioningToOff will be returned from a PML get
operation. An attempt to perform a PML set with any of these
four values will yield <ErrorInvalidOrUnsupportedValue>
