Known Direct Subclasses
MediaName |
Class MediaName is a subclass of Media, a printing attribute class (an
enumeration) that specifies the media for a print job as a name. |
MediaSizeName |
Class MediaSizeName is a subclass of Media. |
MediaTray |
Class MediaTray is a subclass of Media. |

Class Overview
Class Media is a printing attribute class that specifies the
medium on which to print.
Media may be specified in different ways.
- it may be specified by paper source - eg paper tray
- it may be specified by a standard size - eg "A4"
- it may be specified by a name - eg "letterhead"
Each of these corresponds to the IPP "media" attribute.
The current API does not support describing media by characteristics
(eg colour, opacity).
This may be supported in a later revision of the specification.
A Media object is constructed with a value which represents
one of the ways in which the Media attribute can be specified.
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.

Public Methods
public
boolean
equals
(Object object)
Returns whether this media attribute is equivalent to the passed in
object. To be equivalent, all of the following conditions must be true:
-
object
is not null.
-
object
is of the same subclass of Media as this object.
-
The values are equal.
Parameters
object
| Object to compare to. |
Returns
- True if
object
is equivalent to this media
attribute, false otherwise.

for this printing attribute value.
For class Media and any vendor-defined subclasses, the category is
class Media itself.
public

getName
()
Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an
