JavaTM Print Service

Documentation Contents
The JavaTM Print Service is a new Java Print API that allows printing on all Java platforms, including platforms requiring a small footprint, such as a J2ME profile, but still supports the current Java 2 Print API. Thie Java Print Service API includes an extensible print attribute set based on the standard attributes specified in the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) 1.1 from the IETF. With the attributes, client and server applications can discover and select printers that have the capabilities specified by the attributes. In addition to the included StreamPrintService, which allows applications to transcode data to different formats, a third party can dynamically install their own print services through the Service Provider Interface.

Java Print Service User Guide

The Java Print Service User Guide ( HTML | PDF ) describes the Java Print Service in more detail and demonstrates how to use the Java Print Service API to:
  • Discover and select print services based on their capabilities
  • Specify the format of print data
  • Submit print jobs to services that support the document type to be printed.

Java Print Service API Specification

The Java Print Service API consists of these four packages:

javax.print:
Provides the principal classes and interfaces for the Java Print Service API.

javax.print.attribute:
Provides classes and interfaces that describe the types of Java Print Service attributes and how they can be collected into attribute sets.

javax.print.attribute.standard:
