Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Concrete Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`abstract void`	`end()`	Ends the print job and does any necessary cleanup.
`void`	`finalize()`	Deprecated. The `finalize` method has been deprecated. Subclasses that override `finalize` in order to perform cleanup should be modified to use alternative cleanup mechanisms and to remove the overriding `finalize` method. When overriding the `finalize` method, its implementation must explicitly ensure that `super.finalize()` is invoked as described in `Object.finalize()`. See the specification for `Object.finalize()` for further information about migration options.
`abstract Graphics`	`getGraphics()`	Gets a Graphics object that will draw to the next page.
`abstract Dimension`	`getPageDimension()`	Returns the dimensions of the page in pixels.
`abstract int`	`getPageResolution()`	Returns the resolution of the page in pixels per inch.
`abstract boolean`	`lastPageFirst()`	Returns true if the last page will be printed first.

  - getGraphics
```
public abstract Graphics getGraphics()
```
    Gets a Graphics object that will draw to the next page. The page is sent to the printer when the graphics object is disposed. This graphics object will also implement the PrintGraphics interface.
    
    Returns:
    
    the graphics context for printing the next page

  - getPageDimension
```
public abstract Dimension getPageDimension()
```
    Returns the dimensions of the page in pixels. The resolution of the page is chosen so that it is similar to the screen resolution.
    
    Returns:
    
    the page dimension
  - getPageResolution
```
public abstract int getPageResolution()
```
    Returns the resolution of the page in pixels per inch. Note that this doesn't have to correspond to the physical resolution of the printer.
    
    Returns:
    
    the page resolution
  - lastPageFirst
```
public abstract boolean lastPageFirst()
```
    Returns true if the last page will be printed first.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the last page will be printed first; otherwise false
  - end
```
public abstract void end()
```
    Ends the print job and does any necessary cleanup.
  - finalize

    Deprecated. The finalize method has been deprecated. Subclasses that override finalize in order to perform cleanup should be modified to use alternative cleanup mechanisms and to remove the overriding finalize method. When overriding the finalize method, its implementation must explicitly ensure that super.finalize() is invoked as described in Object.finalize().

    Ends this print job once it is no longer referenced.
