PrintJobAttribute is a tagging interface which a printing attribute class implements to indicate the attribute describes the status of a Print Job or some other characteristic of a Print Job. A Print Service instance adds a number of PrintJobAttributes to a Print Job's attribute set to report the Print Job's status. If an attribute implements PrintRequestAttribute as well as PrintJobAttribute, the client may include the attribute in a attribute set to specify the attribute's value for the Print Job.
