All Implemented Interfaces:: java.io.Serializable

public class ISeriesPrinter
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Represents a printer attached to an IBM i system. This class provides access to the specified printer's attributes via the QGYRPRTA system API.

This class uses the remote command host server to obtain printer information. Use the Printer class to retrieve similer information using the network print host server.

Example:

     AS400 system = new AS400("mySystem", "myUserID", "myPassword");
     ISeriesPrinter printer = new ISeriesPrinter(system, "myPrinter");
     String type = printer.getPrinterDeviceType();
     if (type == ISeriesPrinter.PRINTER_DEVICE_TYPE_SCS)
     {
         System.out.println(printer.getCopiesLeft());
     }
