xcmDevicesAssignedHrDeviceIndex 1.3.6.1.4.1.253.8.59.7.1.1.1

The hrDeviceIndex of one of the [physical] devices (printers, scanners, FAX, etc. to which the job has been assigned. For devices and systems that ensure that jobs are not lost across crashes and power cycles, these index values shall remain stable across successive device power cycles. However, if a (low-end) device is not ensuring that job are persistent across crashes and power cycles, these index values need not remain stable across such crashes or power cycles. The representation of the assigned device(s)is an index into the Host Resources MIB device table, rather than being the distinguished name of the physical printer as in the ISO DPA printers-assigned attribute. NOTE - The name of the physical printer [or scanner] is contained in the XCMI Host Resources Extension MIB table for this device. ISO DPA: Printers-assigned This attribute identifies the physical [devices] printer or printers to which this job has been assigned, if any. When the job is first submitted and the server has not yet assigned any printers to the job, the [table] shall be empty. If the server intends to use a single printer for the job, and the server has assigned a printer to the job, [each row] shall contain just that [device]. If a server has split the job into multiple pieces and assigned each piece to a different printer, the table shall contain n rows, one for each assigned device. A job with multiple job-result-sets is an example of a job that would be easy to split into multiple pieces. A table with no elements shall be returned if this attribute is supported, but this job has not yet been assigned to any physical printers [or other devices]. The number of rows in the table for this attribute shall be the same as the number of rows in the table for the associated job attribute printer-state-of-printers-assigned [number of rows for the xcmDeviceStateOfDevicesAssigned table]. In addition, the ith element of each of these associated attributes shall be a value that pertains to the printer named by the ith element of printers-assigned. The printers-assigned value shall not be the same as the printer requested by the user if the job's printer-name-requested attribute specified a logical printer that supports one or more different physical printers. The printers-assigned value might differ also if the job has been re-assigned by an operator to ensure successful completion of the job, allowing the user to find out where a job has been re-assigned (when necessary). The value of the job's printers-assigned attribute shall remain after the job has completed, so that users can determine the physical printer(s) on which the job was printed.
