Class JobMessageFromOperator is a printing attribute class, a text attribute,
that provides a message from an operator, system administrator, or
"intelligent" process to indicate to the end user the reasons for
modification or other management action taken on a job.
A Print Job's attribute set includes zero instances or one instance of a
JobMessageFromOperator attribute, not more than one instance. A new
JobMessageFromOperator attribute replaces an existing JobMessageFromOperator
attribute, if any. In other words, JobMessageFromOperator is not intended to
be a history log. If it wishes, the client can detect changes to a Print
Job's JobMessageFromOperator attribute and maintain the client's own history
log of the JobMessageFromOperator attribute values.
IPP Compatibility: The string value gives the IPP name value. The
locale gives the IPP natural language. The category name returned by
getName()
gives the IPP attribute name.
