Class PrintJobEvent

• java.lang.Object
• • java.util.EventObject
  • • javax.print.event.PrintEvent
    • • javax.print.event.PrintJobEvent

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class PrintJobEvent
extends PrintEvent

Class PrintJobEvent encapsulates common events a print job reports to let a listener know of progress in the processing of the DocPrintJob.

Fields

JOB_CANCELED

public static final int JOB_CANCELED

The job was canceled by the PrintService.

JOB_COMPLETE

public static final int JOB_COMPLETE

The document cis completely printed.

JOB_FAILED

public static final int JOB_FAILED

The print service reports that the job cannot be completed. The application must resubmit the job.

REQUIRES_ATTENTION

public static final int REQUIRES_ATTENTION

The print service indicates that a - possibly transient - problem may require external intervention before the print service can continue. One example of an event that can generate this message is when the printer runs out of paper.

NO_MORE_EVENTS

public static final int NO_MORE_EVENTS

Not all print services may be capable of delivering interesting events, or even telling when a job is complete. This message indicates the print job has no further information or communication with the print service. This message should always be delivered if a terminal event (completed/failed/canceled) is not delivered. For example, if messages such as JOB_COMPLETE have NOT been received before receiving this message, the only inference that should be drawn is that the print service does not support delivering such an event.

DATA_TRANSFER_COMPLETE

public static final int DATA_TRANSFER_COMPLETE

The job is not necessarily printed yet, but the data has been transferred successfully from the client to the print service. The client may free data resources.
