When the * value of the {@link Copies Copies} attribute exceeds 1, * {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} also controls the order in which the copies * that result from processing the documents are produced. This attribute is * relevant only for a multidoc print job consisting of two or more individual * docs. *

* Briefly, {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} determines the relationship between * the multiple input (electronic) documents fed into a multidoc print job and * the output (physical) document or documents produced by the multidoc print * job. * There are two possibilities: *

* In the detailed explanations below, if "{@code a}" represents an instance of * document data, then the result of processing the data in document "{@code a}" * is a sequence of media sheets represented by "{@code a(*)}". *

* The standard {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} values are: *

*

* {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT} is the same as * {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES} with respect to ordering of * print-stream pages, but not media sheet generation, since * {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT} will put the first page of the next document on the * back side of a sheet if an odd number of pages have been produced so far for * the job, while {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES} always forces the * next document or document copy on to a new sheet. *

* In addition, if a {@link Finishings Finishings} attribute of * {@link Finishings#STAPLE STAPLE} is specified, then: *

* Note: None of these values provide means to produce uncollated sheets * within a document, i.e., where multiple copies of sheet n are produced * before sheet n+1 of the same document. To specify that, see the * {@link SheetCollate SheetCollate} attribute. *

* IPP Compatibility: The category name returned by {@code getName()} is * the IPP attribute name. The enumeration's integer value is the IPP enum * value. The {@code toString()} method returns the IPP string representation of * the attribute value. * * @author David Mendenhall * @author Alan Kaminsky * @see Copies * @see Finishings * @see NumberUp * @see PageRanges * @see SheetCollate * @see Sides */ public class MultipleDocumentHandling extends EnumSyntax implements PrintRequestAttribute, PrintJobAttribute { /** * Use serialVersionUID from JDK 1.4 for interoperability. */ private static final long serialVersionUID = 8098326460746413466L; /** * Single document -- see above for further information. */ public static final MultipleDocumentHandling SINGLE_DOCUMENT = new MultipleDocumentHandling (0); /** * Separate documents uncollated copies -- see above for * further information. */ public static final MultipleDocumentHandling SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES = new MultipleDocumentHandling (1); /** * Separate documents collated copies -- see above for * further information. */ public static final MultipleDocumentHandling SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES = new MultipleDocumentHandling (2); /** * Single document new sheet -- see above for further * information. */ public static final MultipleDocumentHandling SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET = new MultipleDocumentHandling (3); /** * Construct a new multiple document handling enumeration value with the * given integer value. * * @param value Integer value */ protected MultipleDocumentHandling(int value) { super (value); } /** * The string table for class {@code MultipleDocumentHandling}. */ private static final String[] myStringTable = { "single-document", "separate-documents-uncollated-copies", "separate-documents-collated-copies", "single-document-new-sheet" }; /** * The enumeration value table for class {@code MultipleDocumentHandling}. */ private static final MultipleDocumentHandling[] myEnumValueTable = { SINGLE_DOCUMENT, SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES, SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES, SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET }; /** * Returns the string table for class {@code MultipleDocumentHandling}. */ protected String[] getStringTable() { return myStringTable.clone(); } /** * Returns the enumeration value table for class * {@code MultipleDocumentHandling}. */ protected EnumSyntax[] getEnumValueTable() { return (EnumSyntax[])myEnumValueTable.clone(); } /** * Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" * for this printing attribute value. *
