implements DocAttribute, PrintRequestAttribute, PrintJobAttribute

Class Sides is a printing attribute class, an enumeration, that specifies how print-stream pages are to be imposed upon the sides of an instance of a selected medium, i.e., an impression.

The effect of a Sides attribute on a multidoc print job (a job with multiple documents) depends on whether all the docs have the same sides values specified or whether different docs have different sides values specified, and on the (perhaps defaulted) value of the MultipleDocumentHandling attribute.

• If all the docs have the same sides value n specified, then any value of MultipleDocumentHandling makes sense, and the printer's processing depends on the MultipleDocumentHandling value:
  • SINGLE_DOCUMENT -- All the input docs will be combined together into one output document. Each media sheet will consist of n impressions from the output document.

  • SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET -- All the input docs will be combined together into one output document. Each media sheet will consist of n impressions from the output document. However, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last media sheet of an input doc may have only one impression on it.

  • SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES -- The input docs will remain separate. Each media sheet will consist of n impressions from the input doc. Since the input docs are separate, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last media sheet of an input doc may have only one impression on it.

  • SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES -- The input docs will remain separate. Each media sheet will consist of n impressions from the input doc. Since the input docs are separate, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last media sheet of an input doc may have only one impression on it.
  • SINGLE_DOCUMENT -- All the input docs will be combined together into one output document. Each media sheet will consist of n_i impressions from the output document, where i is the number of the input doc corresponding to that point in the output document. When the next input doc has a different sides value from the previous input doc, the first print-stream page of the next input doc goes at the start of the next media sheet, possibly leaving only one impression on the previous media sheet.

  • SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET -- All the input docs will be combined together into one output document. Each media sheet will consist of n impressions from the output document. However, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last impression of an input doc may have only one impression on it.

  • SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES -- The input docs will remain separate. For input doc i, each media sheet will consist of n_i impressions from the input doc. Since the input docs are separate, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last media sheet of an input doc may have only one impression on it.

  • SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES -- The input docs will remain separate. For input doc i, each media sheet will consist of n_i impressions from the input doc. Since the input docs are separate, the first impression of each input doc will always start on a new media sheet; this means the last media sheet of an input doc may have only one impression on it.

IPP Compatibility: The category name returned by getName() is the IPP attribute name. The enumeration's integer value is the IPP enum value. The toString() method returns the IPP string representation of the attribute value.

Field Summary

static Sides	DUPLEX An alias for "two sided long edge" (see TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE).
static Sides	ONE_SIDED Imposes each consecutive print-stream page upon the same side of consecutive media sheets.
static Sides	TUMBLE An alias for "two sided short edge" (see TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE).
static Sides	TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE Imposes each consecutive pair of print-stream pages upon front and back sides of consecutive media sheets, such that the orientation of each pair of print-stream pages on the medium would be correct for the reader as if for binding on the long edge.
static Sides	TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE Imposes each consecutive pair of print-stream pages upon front and back sides of consecutive media sheets, such that the orientation of each pair of print-stream pages on the medium would be correct for the reader as if for binding on the short edge.

Field Detail

ONE_SIDED

public static final Sides ONE_SIDED

Imposes each consecutive print-stream page upon the same side of consecutive media sheets.

TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE

public static final Sides TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE

Imposes each consecutive pair of print-stream pages upon front and back sides of consecutive media sheets, such that the orientation of each pair of print-stream pages on the medium would be correct for the reader as if for binding on the long edge. This imposition is also known as "duplex" (see DUPLEX).

TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE

public static final Sides TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE

Imposes each consecutive pair of print-stream pages upon front and back sides of consecutive media sheets, such that the orientation of each pair of print-stream pages on the medium would be correct for the reader as if for binding on the short edge. This imposition is also known as "tumble" (see TUMBLE).

DUPLEX

public static final Sides DUPLEX

An alias for "two sided long edge" (see TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE).

TUMBLE

public static final Sides TUMBLE

An alias for "two sided short edge" (see TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE).
