package java.awt;

A set of attributes which control a print job.

Instances of this class control the number of copies, default selection, destination, print dialog, file and printer names, page ranges, multiple document handling (including collation), and multi-page imposition (such as duplex) of every print job which uses the instance. Attribute names are compliant with the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) 1.1 where possible. Attribute values are partially compliant where possible.

To use a method which takes an inner class type, pass a reference to one of the constant fields of the inner class. Client code cannot create new instances of the inner class types because none of those classes has a public constructor. For example, to set the print dialog type to the cross-platform, pure Java print dialog, use the following code:

import java.awt.JobAttributes;
public class PureJavaPrintDialogExample {
    public void setPureJavaPrintDialog(JobAttributes jobAttributes) {
        jobAttributes.setDialog(JobAttributes.DialogType.COMMON);
    }
}

Every IPP attribute which supports an attributeName-default value has a corresponding setattributeNameToDefault method. Default value fields are not provided.

Returns: an array of integer arrays of 2 elements. An array is interpreted as a range spanning all pages including and between the specified pages.
