## javax.print.attribute.standard
Class PrinterState

    java.lang.Object
      javax.print.attribute.EnumSyntax
          javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterState

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute, PrintServiceAttribute

    public final class PrinterState

extends EnumSyntax
implements PrintServiceAttribute

Class PrinterState is a printing attribute class, an enumeration, that identifies the current state of a printer. Class PrinterState defines standard printer state values. A Print Service implementation only needs to report those printer states which are appropriate for the particular implementation; it does not have to report every defined printer state. The `PrinterStateReasons` attribute augments the PrinterState attribute to give more detailed information about the printer in given printer state.

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.
