The JobImpressions printing attribute specifies the total size in number of impressions of the documents of a a print job.

An impression is specified by the IPP specification as the image (possibly many print-stream pages in different configurations) imposed onto a single media sheet. This attribute must not include a multiplication factor from the number of copies which maybe specified in a Copies attribute.

The values supplied by these attributes are intended to be used for routing and scheduling of jobs on the print service. A client may specify these attributes. If a clients supplies these attributes a print service may change the values if its be able to compute a more accurate value at the time of the job submission or also later.
