Section 5.2.2 says:

     Table 4.  Additional Attributes in Event Notification Content for                                Job Events   Source Value                                  Sends  Source Object   job-id (integer(1:MAX))                       MUST   Job   job-state (type1 enum)                        MUST   Job

It should say:

     Table 4.  Additional Attributes in Event Notification Content for                                Job Events   Source Value                                  Sends  Source Object   notify-job-id (integer(1:MAX))                MUST   Job   job-state (type1 enum)                        MUST   Job

Notes:

The notify-job-id attribute [RFC3995] contains the subscribed Job identifier.

Section 5.2.1 says:

   The value of this attribute MUST be at least as large as that of the   Printer's "ippget-event-life" Printer Description attribute (see   section 8.1).  The Printer MAY return a value that is larger than   that of the "ippget-event-life" Printer Description attribute   provided that the Printer increases the Event Life for this   Subscription object so that Notification Recipients taking account of   the larger value and polling with a longer interval will not miss   events.  Note:  Implementing such an algorithm requires some hidden   attributes in the Subscription object that are IMPLEMENTATION   DEPENDENT.

It should say:

   If the value of this attribute is larger than that of the   "ippget-event-life" Printer Description attribute, the Printer MUST   increase the Event Life for this Subscription object so that   Notification Recipients taking account of the larger value and   polling with a longer interval will not miss events.  Note:   Implementing such an algorithm requires some hidden state in the   Subscription object that is IMPLEMENTATION DEPENDENT.

Notes:

The range of values allowed for the "notify-get-interval" attribute (0 to 2^31-1) is different from the "ippget-event-life" attribute (15 to 2^31-1), and implementations have ignored this requirement because it makes no sense. Furthermore, the use of MAY for larger values does not clearly capture the requirement to extend event lives in order to avoid missing notifications.
