 * Class JobPrioritySupported is an integer valued printing attribute class 
 * that specifies whether a Print Service instance supports the {@link 
 * JobPriority JobPriority} attribute and the number of different job priority 
 * levels supported. 
 * <P>
 * The client can always specify any {@link JobPriority JobPriority} value 
 * from 1 to 100 for a job. However, the Print Service instance may support
 * fewer than 100 different job priority levels. If this is the case, the 
 * Print Service instance automatically maps the client-specified job priority 
 * value to one of the supported job priority levels, dividing the 100 job 
 * priority values equally among the available job priority levels. 
 * <P>
 * <B>IPP Compatibility:</B> The integer value gives the IPP integer value.
 * The category name returned by <CODE>getName()</CODE> gives the IPP
 * attribute name.
