- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable,- Cloneable,- Attribute,- PrintJobAttribute
JobMessageFromOperator is a printing attribute class, a text
 attribute, that provides a message from an operator, system administrator, or
 "intelligent" process to indicate to the end user the reasons for
 modification or other management action taken on a job.
 
 A Print Job's attribute set includes zero instances or one instance of a
 JobMessageFromOperator attribute, not more than one instance. A new
 JobMessageFromOperator attribute replaces an existing
 JobMessageFromOperator attribute, if any. In other words,
 JobMessageFromOperator is not intended to be a history log. If it
 wishes, the client can detect changes to a Print Job's
 JobMessageFromOperator attribute and maintain the client's own
 history log of the JobMessageFromOperator attribute values.
 
 IPP Compatibility: The string value gives the IPP name value. The
 locale gives the IPP natural language. The category name returned by
 getName() gives the IPP attribute name.
