[STR New]

This option is required for clients that want to use less bandwidth by
using a push/pull method instead of a polling method.

>From RFC 3996:

5.1.3.  notify-wait (boolean)

   This value indicates whether the Notification Recipient wants Event
   Wait Mode.  The client MAY supply this attribute.  The Printer object
   MUST support both values of this attribute.

   If the client supplies the 'false' value or omits this attribute, the
   client is not requesting Event Wait Mode.  If the value is 'true',
   the client is requesting Event Wait Mode.  See the beginning of
   section 5.2 for the rules for Event Wait Mode.
