import javax.print.attribute.PrintJobAttribute;

 * Class {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} is a printing attribute class, an

 * enumeration, that controls finishing operations and the placement of one or

 * more print-stream pages into impressions and onto media sheets. 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.

 * <p>

 * 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.

 * <ul>

 *   <li>The multiple input documents are combined into a single output

 *   document. Finishing operations ({@link Finishings Finishings}), are

 *   performed on this single output document. The {@link Copies Copies}

 *   attribute tells how many copies of this single output document to produce.

 *   The {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} values {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT} and

 *   {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET} specify two variations of this

 *   possibility.

 *   <li>The multiple input documents remain separate output documents.

 *   Finishing operations ({@link Finishings Finishings}), are performed on each

 *   output document separately. The {@link Copies Copies} attribute tells how

 *   many copies of each separate output document to produce. The

 *   {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} values

 *   {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES} and

 *   {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES} specify two variations of this

 *   possibility.

 * </ul>

 * 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(*)}".

 * <p>

 * The standard {@code MultipleDocumentHandling} values are:

 * <ul>

 *   <li><a id="sdfi"></a>{@link #SINGLE_DOCUMENT <b>SINGLE_DOCUMENT</b>}. If a

 *   print job has multiple documents -- say, the document data is called

 *   {@code a} and {@code b} -- then the result of processing all the document

 *   data ({@code a} and then {@code b}) must be treated as a single sequence of

 *   media sheets for finishing operations; that is, finishing would be

 *   performed on the concatenation of the sequences {@code a(*),b(*)}. The

 *   printer must not force the data in each document instance to be formatted

 *   onto a new print-stream page, nor to start a new impression on a new media

 *   sheet. If more than one copy is made, the ordering of the sets of media

 *   sheets resulting from processing the document data must be

 *   {@code a(*),b(*),a(*),b(*),...}, and the printer object must force each

 *   copy ({@code a(*),b(*)}) to start on a new media sheet.

 *   <li><a id="sducfi"></a>{@link #SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES

 *   <b>SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES</b>}. If a print job has multiple

 *   documents -- say, the document data is called {@code a} and {@code b} --

 *   then the result of processing the data in each document instance must be

 *   treated as a single sequence of media sheets for finishing operations; that

 *   is, the sets {@code a(*)} and {@code b(*)} would each be finished

 *   separately. The printer must force each copy of the result of processing

 *   the data in a single document to start on a new media sheet. If more than

 *   one copy is made, the ordering of the sets of media sheets resulting from

 *   processing the document data must be {@code a(*),a(*),...,b(*),b(*)...}.

 *   <li><a id="sdccfi"></a>{@link #SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES

 *   <b>SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES</b>}. If a print job has multiple

 *   documents -- say, the document data is called {@code a} and {@code b} --

 *   then the result of processing the data in each document instance must be

 *   treated as a single sequence of media sheets for finishing operations; that

 *   is, the sets {@code a(*)} and {@code b(*)} would each be finished

 *   separately. The printer must force each copy of the result of processing

 *   the data in a single document to start on a new media sheet. If more than

 *   one copy is made, the ordering of the sets of media sheets resulting from

 *   processing the document data must be {@code a(*),b(*),a(*),b(*),...}.

 *   <li><a id="sdnsfi"></a>{@link #SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET

 *   <b>SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET</b>}. Same as SINGLE_DOCUMENT, except that the

 *   printer must ensure that the first impression of each document instance in

 *   the job is placed on a new media sheet. This value allows multiple

 *   documents to be stapled together with a single staple where each document

 *   starts on a new sheet.

 * </ul>

 * <p>

 * {@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

 * <p>

 * <ul>

 *   <li>With {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT}, documents {@code a} and {@code b} are

 *   stapled together as a single document with no regard to new sheets.

 *   <li>With {@code SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET}, documents {@code a} and

 *   {@code b} are stapled together as a single document, but document {@code b}

 *   starts on a new sheet.

 *   <li>With {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES} and

 *   {@code SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES}, documents {@code a} and

 *   {@code b} are stapled separately.

 * </ul>

 * <i>Note:</i> None of these values provide means to produce uncollated sheets

 * within a document, i.e., where multiple copies of sheet <i>n</i> are produced

 * before sheet <i>n</i>+1 of the same document. To specify that, see the

 * {@link SheetCollate SheetCollate} attribute.

 * <p>

 * <b>IPP Compatibility:</b> 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.
