Class PrinterURI

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute, PrintServiceAttribute

    public final class PrinterURI
extends URISyntax
implements PrintServiceAttribute
    Class PrinterURI is a printing attribute class, a URI, that specifies the globally unique name of a printer. If it has such a name, an administrator determines a printer's URI and sets this attribute to that name.

    IPP Compatibility: This implements the IPP printer-uri attribute. The string form returned by toString() gives the IPP printer-uri value. The category name returned by getName() gives the IPP attribute name.
