Terminology

The terminology used in this CR should conform to the "Rules for the structure and drafting of International Standards", 5th Edition, 2005 available at:

http://isotc.iso.org/livelink/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/2122/3146825/4229629/4230450/4230456/ISO_IEC_Directives__Part_2__Rules_for_the_structure_and_drafting_of_International_Standards__2004__5th_edition___pdf_format_.pdf?nodeid=4230517&vernum=0

Particular attention shall be paid to Annex H which lays out guidelines for the expression of provisions.

Background/Rationale (Explanation of the background and reason(s) for the requested change, and supporting documentation):

As part of the PWG/DMTF Work Register, PWG is updating the printing-related classes in the CIM data model.  The PWG models for printing related devices and services include many properties that need to be managed but are not currently represented in CIM at all.  The CIM model is being extended to include these important management objects.  This requires extensions to the CIM_Printer class and the addition of other CIM classes to represent the capabilities, settings, and counters required.  

The current class, CIM_PrintFinisher, represents an optional output finishing component of a printer, such as a stapler, binder, etc. 

Descriptions of the changes, both editorial and substantive, are listed below. 

- Change the association used to relate to Printer: avoid cardinality constraint for this class that represents optional components. 

- Add a ModelCorrespondence to correct an earlier oversight.

We (PWG) are reasonably certain that there are no current implementations of this experimental class yet (at least not within our membership), so we do not feel that the changes will be burdensome.
