/**

 * Class PrinterResolution is a printing attribute class that specifies an

 * exact resolution supported by a printer or to be used for a print job.

 * This attribute assumes that printers have a small set of device resolutions

 * at which they can operate rather than a continuum.

 * <p>

 * PrinterResolution is used in multiple ways:

 * <OL TYPE=1>

 * <LI>

 * When a client searches looking for a printer that supports the client's

 * desired resolution exactly (no more, no less), the client specifies

 * an instance of class PrinterResolution indicating the exact resolution the

 * client wants. Only printers supporting that exact resolution will match the

 * search.

 *

 * <LI>

 * When a client needs to print a job using the client's desired resolution

 * exactly (no more, no less), the client specifies an instance of class

 * PrinterResolution as an attribute of the Print Job. This will fail if the

 * Print Job doesn't support that exact resolution, and Fidelity is set to

 * true.

 * </OL>

 * If a client wants to locate a printer supporting a resolution

 * greater than some required minimum, then it may be necessary to exclude

 * this attribute from a lookup request and to directly query the set of

 * supported resolutions, and specify the one that most closely meets

 * the client's requirements.

 * In some cases this may be more simply achieved by specifying a

 * PrintQuality attribute which often controls resolution.
