Package Summary  Overview Summary

class:JobPriority [NONE]
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute, PrintJobAttribute, PrintRequestAttribute 
    public final class JobPriority
extends IntegerSyntax
implements PrintRequestAttribute, PrintJobAttribute
    Class JobPriority is an integer valued printing attribute class that specifies a print job's priority.

    If a JobPriority attribute is specified for a Print Job, it specifies a priority for scheduling the job. A higher value specifies a higher priority. The value 1 indicates the lowest possible priority. The value 100 indicates the highest possible priority. Among those jobs that are ready to print, a printer must print all jobs with a priority value of n before printing those with a priority value of n-1 for all n.

    If the client does not specify a JobPriority attribute for a Print Job and the printer does support the JobPriority attribute, the printer must use an implementation-defined default JobPriority value.

    The client can always specify any job priority value from 1 to 100 for a job. However, a Print Service instance may support fewer than 100 different job priority levels. If this is the case, the Print Service instance automatically maps the client-specified job priority value to one of the supported job priority levels, dividing the 100 job priority values equally among the available job priority levels.

    IPP Compatibility: The integer value gives the IPP integer value. The category name returned by getName() gives the IPP attribute name.

constructor:<init>(int) [NONE]

  • JobPriority

    public JobPriority​(int value)
    Construct a new job priority attribute with the given integer value.
    Parameters:
    value - Integer value
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - if value is less than 1 or greater than 100

method:equals(java.lang.Object) [NONE]

  • equals

    public boolean equals​(Object object)
    Returns whether this job priority attribute is equivalent to the passed in object. To be equivalent, all of the following conditions must be true:
    1. object is not null.
    2. object is an instance of class JobPriority.
    3. This job priority attribute's value and object's value are equal.
    Overrides:
    equals in class IntegerSyntax
    Parameters:
    object - Object to compare to
    Returns:
    true if object is equivalent to this job priority attribute, false otherwise
    See Also:
    Object.hashCode(), HashMap

method:getCategory() [NONE]

  • getCategory

    public final Class<? extends Attribute> getCategory()
    Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value.

    For class JobPriority, the category is class JobPriority itself.

    Specified by:
    getCategory in interface Attribute
    Returns:
    printing attribute class (category), an instance of class java.lang.Class

method:getName() [NONE]

  • getName

    public final String getName()
    Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.

    For class JobPriority, the category name is "job-priority".

    Specified by:
    getName in interface Attribute
    Returns:
    attribute category name
