-Provides the principal classes and interfaces for the
-Java<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup> Print Service API.
-The Java Print Service API enables client and server applications to:
-<ul>
-<li>Discover and select print services based on their capabilities
-<li>Specify the format of print data
-<li>Submit print jobs to services that support the document type to
-be printed.
-</ul>
-
-
-<h3>Print Service Discovery</h3>
-<p>
-An application invokes the static methods of the abstract class
-{@link javax.print.PrintServiceLookup PrintServiceLookup} to locate print
-services that have the capabilities to satisfy the application's print
-request. For example, to print a double-sided document, the application
-first needs to find printers that have the double-sided printing capability.
-<p>
-The JDK includes <code>PrintServiceLookup</code> implementations that
-can locate the standard platform printers. To locate other types of printers,
-such as IPP printers or JINI printers, a print-service provider can write
-implementations of <code>PrintServiceLookup</code>. The print-service provider
-can dynamically install these <code>PrintServiceLookup</code> implementations
-using the
-<a href="../../../technotes/guides/jar/jar.html#Service%20Provider">
-SPI JAR file specification</a>.
-
-<h3>Attribute Definitions</h3>
-
-The {@link javax.print.attribute} and {@link javax.print.attribute.standard}
-packages define print attributes, which describe the capabilities of a print
-service, specify the requirements of a print job, and track the progress of
-a print job.
-<p>
-The <code>javax.print.attribute</code> package describes the types of attributes and
-how they can be collected into sets. The <code>javax.print.attribute.standard</code>
-package enumerates all of the standard attributes supported by the API, most
-of which are implementations of attributes specified in the IETF Specification,
-<a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2911.txt">
-RFC 2911 Internet Printing Protocol, 1.1: Model and Semantics</a>, dated
-September 2000. The attributes specified in <code>javax.print.attribute.standard</code>
-include common capabilities, such as: resolution, copies, media sizes,
-job priority, and page ranges.
-
-<h3>Document Type Specification</h3>
-
-The {@link javax.print.DocFlavor DocFlavor} class represents the print data
-format, such as JPEG or PostScript. A <code>DocFlavor</code> object
-consists of a MIME type, which describes the format, and a document
-representation class name that indicates how the document is delivered
-to the printer or output stream. An application uses the
-<code>DocFlavor</code> and an attribute set to find printers that can
-print the document type specified by the <code>DocFlavor</code> and have
-the capabilities specified by the attribute set.
-
-<h3>Using the API</h3>
-
-A typical application using the Java Print Service API performs these steps
-to process a print request:
-<ol>
-<li>Chooses a <code>DocFlavor</code>.</li>
-<li>Creates a set of attributes.</li>
-<li>Locates a print service that can handle the print request as specified
-by the <code>DocFlavor</code> and the attribute set.</li>
-<li>Creates a {@link javax.print.Doc Doc} object encapsulating the
-<code>DocFlavor</code>
-and the actual print data, which can take many forms including: a Postscript
-file, a JPEG image, a URL, or plain text.</li>
-<li>Gets a print job, represented by {@link javax.print.DocPrintJob DocPrintJob},
- from the print service.</li>
-<li>Calls the print method of the print job.</li>
-</ol>
-The following code sample demonstrates a typical use of the Java Print
-Service API: locating printers that can print five double-sided copies
-of a Postscript document on size A4 paper, creating a print job from
-one of the returned print services, and calling print.
-
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-FileInputStream psStream;
-try {
- psStream = new FileInputStream("file.ps");
-} catch (FileNotFoundException ffne) {
-}
-if (psStream == null) {
- return;
-}
-
-DocFlavor psInFormat = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.POSTSCRIPT;
-Doc myDoc = new SimpleDoc(psStream, psInFormat, null);
-PrintRequestAttributeSet aset =
- new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
-aset.add(new Copies(5));
-aset.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4);
-aset.add(Sides.DUPLEX);
-PrintService[] services =
- PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(psInFormat, aset);
-if (services.length > 0) {
- DocPrintJob job = services[0].createPrintJob();
- try {
- job.print(myDoc, aset);
- } catch (PrintException pe) {}
-}
-</pre>
-</blockquote>
-<P>
-Please note: In the javax.print APIs, a null reference parameter to methods
-is incorrect unless explicitly documented on the method as having a meaningful
-interpretation. Usage to the contrary is incorrect coding and may result
-in a run time exception either immediately or at some later time.
-IllegalArgumentException and NullPointerException are examples of
-typical and acceptable run time exceptions for such cases.
