My current thinking is that we will make a few different probes, a PJL, a PCL, a XEX, and a IPDS. I haven't started on IPDS but here is the spec:
The printer port version detection work is great! But remember that for version detection, every new probe adds extra time to the VD process for non-matching services. So if we can get the same results from just one probe, that is preferable. Still, it is definitely worth testing multiple probes to determine which one works best. And it may turn out that we do need multiple probes to catch everything. But if we can avoid that, we should. If we have to have multiple probes, things like the rarity value and well-set probable ports fields can help.
