          Appeal No. 1999-0006                                                        
          Application No. 08/470,970                                                  


          communication capability, relied on by the Examiner, between a              
          host computer and printer in Davidson is not sufficient to                  
          establish a teaching of a printer-initiated connection under                
          the specific conditions set forth in the appealed claims.                   
               With respect to the DeHart and Patel references relied on              
          by the Examiner as providing a teaching of the use of an                    
          application layer interface and print job characteristic data,              
          respectively, we find nothing in either of these disclosures                
          that would overcome the innate deficiencies of Davidson                     
          discussed supra.
