/**
 * Class JobStateReasons is a printing attribute class, a set of enumeration 
 * values, that provides additional information about the job's current state, 
 * i.e., information that augments the value of the job's {@link JobState 
 * JobState} attribute.
 * <P>
 * Instances of {@link JobStateReason JobStateReason} do not appear in a Print 
 * Job's attribute set directly. Rather, a JobStateReasons attribute appears in 
 * the Print Job's attribute set. The JobStateReasons attribute contains zero, 
 * one, or more than one {@link JobStateReason JobStateReason} objects which 
 * pertain to the Print Job's status. The printer adds a {@link JobStateReason 
 * JobStateReason} object to the Print Job's JobStateReasons attribute when the 
 * corresponding condition becomes true of the Print Job, and the printer 
 * removes the {@link JobStateReason JobStateReason} object again when the 
 * corresponding condition becomes false, regardless of whether the Print Job's 
 * overall {@link JobState JobState} also changed. 
 * <P>
 * Class JobStateReasons inherits its implementation from class {@link 
 * java.util.HashSet java.util.HashSet}. Unlike most printing attributes which 
 * are immutable once constructed, class JobStateReasons is designed to be 
 * mutable; you can add {@link JobStateReason JobStateReason} objects to an 
 * existing JobStateReasons object and remove them again. However, like class 
 * {@link java.util.HashSet java.util.HashSet}, class JobStateReasons is not 
 * multiple thread safe. If a JobStateReasons object will be used by multiple 
 * threads, be sure to synchronize its operations (e.g., using a synchronized 
 * set view obtained from class {@link java.util.Collections 
 * java.util.Collections}). 
 * <P>
 * <B>IPP Compatibility:</B> The string value returned by each individual {@link 
 * JobStateReason JobStateReason} object's <CODE>toString()</CODE> method gives 
 * the IPP keyword value. The category name returned by <CODE>getName()</CODE> 
 * gives the IPP attribute name. 
 * <P>
