  Interface PrintRequestAttribute is a tagging interface which a printing attribute class implements to indicate the attribute denotes a requested setting for a print job.

  Attributes which are tagged with PrintRequestAttribute and are also tagged as PrintJobAttribute, represent the subset of job attributes which can be part of the specification of a job request.

  If an attribute implements `DocAttribute` as well as PrintRequestAttribute, the client may include the attribute in a `Doc`}'s attribute set to specify a job setting which pertains just to that doc.

  See Also:
    `DocAttributeSet`, `PrintRequestAttributeSet`
