This topic is not current. For the most current information, see the Print Schema Specification.

Describes the installed input bin in a device or the full list of supported bins for a device. Allows specification of input bin on a per job basis. The JobInputBin, DocumentInputBin, and PageInputBin keywords are mutually exclusive. Both should not be specified simultaneously in a PrintTicket or Print Capabilities document.
