I am well familiar with the work of IPP in the IETF. You mention MIBs which I
know of. Is there anything similar in YANG?

I don't know if this was meant as serious? But FWIW the IETF published the
Internet Printing Protocol (STD 92) more than 2 decades ago, and it is used by
nearly every network printer ("billions of printers") and most "cloud" printing
services (including Microsoft's Azure-based Universal Print Service). Any
printer with "AirPrint", "IPP Everywhere", "Mopria", or "Wi-Fi Direct" on the
box supports IPP.
The Printer Working Group (who is the current steward of IPP and the variable
SNMP printing MIBs) has also defined numerous IPP extensions, including
standards for cloud printing and Internet fax using a streamable subset of PDF.
So, assuming somebody doesn't just email you a file you can print it quite
easily using a single, standard protocol.
[But of course telephone-based fax still hasn't died - boggles the mind...]
