java.awt
Class PageAttributes

java.lang.Object
  java.awt.PageAttributes

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable

public final class PageAttributes
extends Object
implements Cloneable

A set of attributes which control the output of a printed page.

Instances of this class control the color state, paper size (media type), orientation, logical origin, print quality, and resolution of every page which uses the instance. Attribute names are compliant with the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) 1.1 where possible. Attribute values are partially compliant where possible.

To use a method which takes an inner class type, pass a reference to one of the constant fields of the inner class. Client code cannot create new instances of the inner class types because none of those classes has a public constructor. For example, to set the color state to monochrome, use the following code:

 import java.awt.PageAttributes;

 public class MonochromeExample {
     public void setMonochrome(PageAttributes pageAttributes) {
         pageAttributes.setColor(PageAttributes.ColorType.MONOCHROME);
     }
 }
 

Every IPP attribute which supports an attributeName-default value has a corresponding setattributeNameToDefault method. Default value fields are not provided.

Since:

1.3

(Note that these locations could be equivalent.) This attribute cannot be modified by, and is not subject to any limitations of, the implementation or the target printer.

Returns:

OriginType.PHYSICAL or OriginType.PRINTABLE

setOrigin

public void setOrigin(PageAttributes.OriginType origin)

Specifies whether drawing at (0, 0) to pages using these attributes draws at the upper-left corner of the physical page, or at the upper-left corner of the printable area. (Note that these locations could be equivalent.) Not specifying the property is equivalent to specifying OriginType.PHYSICAL.

Parameters:

Specifying any other value will generate an IllegalArgumentException. Not specifying the property is equivalent to calling setPrintQuality(PrintQualityType.NORMAL).

Parameters:

printQuality - 3, 4, or 5

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if printQuality is not 3 , 4, or 5

setPrintQualityToDefault

public void setPrintQualityToDefault()

setPrinterResolution

public void setPrinterResolution(int printerResolution)

Specifies the desired cross feed and feed print resolutions in dots per inch for pages using these attributes. The same value is used for both resolutions. The actual resolutions will be determined by the limitations of the implementation and the target printer. Not specifying the property is equivalent to specifying 72.

Parameters:

printerResolution - an integer greater than 0.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if printerResolution is less than or equal to 0.

setPrinterResolutionToDefault

public void setPrinterResolutionToDefault()

Sets the printer resolution for pages using these attributes to the default. The default is 72 dpi for both the feed and cross feed resolutions.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Determines whether two PageAttributes are equal to each other.

Two PageAttributes are equal if and only if each of their attributes are equal. Attributes of enumeration type are equal if and only if the fields refer to the same unique enumeration object. This means that an aliased media is equal to its underlying unique media. Printer resolutions are equal if and only if the feed resolution, cross feed resolution, and units are equal.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - the object whose equality will be checked.

Returns:

whether obj is equal to this PageAttribute according to the above criteria.
