This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.
Welcome to the IBM Ideas Portal (https://www.ibm.com/ideas) - Use this site to find out additional information and details about the IBM Ideas process and statuses.
IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com) - Use this site to view all of your ideas, create new ideas for any IBM product, or search for ideas across all of IBM.
ideasibm@us.ibm.com - Use this email to suggest enhancements to the Ideas process or request help from IBM for submitting your Ideas.
The CEAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM view this as a high priority Idea that is important to be addressed.
Background: The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.

I do not think there is a SQL service for LAN Printer Device Description, but there is one you can use for RMTOUTQs:
select X.OUTPUT_QUEUE_NAME, X.OUTPUT_QUEUE_LIBRARY_NAME, X.REMOTE_SYSTEM_NAME, X.INTERNET_ADDRESS, X.*
from QSYS2.OUTPUT_QUEUE_INFO X where X.INTERNET_ADDRESS isnotnullor X.REMOTE_SYSTEM_NAME isnotnull;
Ref: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.5?topic=services-output-queue-info-view
In relation to this, I'd like an SQL view over device descriptions that will list me --
Object name
Object text description
Object IP address
Where I work, we use a product called PrinterLogic and it relates network printer name to IP address. I'd like to give the networking team a list of these Devd's and their associated IP addresses, so that they can also mention the Devd in PrinterLogic.
