Class PrinterAttributes

javafx.print.PrinterAttributes

public final class PrinterAttributes
extends Object

This class encapsulates the attributes of a printer which relate to its job printing capabilities and other attributes.

there are methods to retrieve the default or current value, as well as the set or range of supported values, as appropriate.

Instances of this class are delegates of the Printer and must be obtained from the printer. They cannot be mutated by the application as changing settings of a printer is outside the scope of this API.

Since:

JavaFX 8.0
