This is a basic access modifier issue. PrintQuality's [int] constructor is PROTECTED, so only a subclass of PrintQuality, OR another class within the javax.print.attribute.standard package may access that protected constructor.
The [int] constructor for OrientationRequested is also protected, and you have the same issues with it as you do with PrintQuality as above.

I can't seem to use the defined constants cut and pasted from the API web pages, or even a literal integer. I do this sort of thing all the time with constants? I cannot see any problem with the constuctors. Any help would be appreciated.
