public final class PrinterLocation extends TextSyntax implements PrintServiceAttribute
Class PrinterLocation is a printing attribute class, a text attribute, that identifies the location of the device. This could include things like: "in Room 123A, second floor of building XYZ".

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.
