Revert "Update the documentaton of the android.print package."
This reverts commit 30c9eae16ef6b9d016fd8c8f8e60c331f587cac5. We do not need this as it appears that the SDK docs will be built from the klp-dev branch. Change-Id: Id0e288763eb2cb4a1e01283809fba0ea577c354c

- * <h3>Print mechanics</h3>
- * <p>
- * The key idea behind printing on the platform is that the content to be printed
- * should be laid out for the currently selected print options resulting in an
- * optimized output and higher user satisfaction. To achieve this goal the platform
- * declares a contract that the printing application has to follow which is defined
- * by the {@link PrintDocumentAdapter} class. At a higher level the contract is that
- * when the user selects some options from the print UI that may affect the way
- * content is laid out, for example page size, the application receives a callback
- * allowing it to layout the content to better fit these new constraints. After a
- * layout pass the system may ask the application to render one or more pages one
- * or more times. For example, an application may produce a single column list for
- * smaller page sizes and a multi-column table for larger page sizes.
- * </p>
- * <h3>Print jobs</h3>
- * <p>
- * Print jobs are started by calling the {@link #print(String, PrintDocumentAdapter,
- * PrintAttributes)} from an activity which results in bringing up the system print
- * UI. Once the print UI is up, when the user changes a selected print option that
- * affects the way content is laid out the system starts to interact with the
- * application following the mechanics described the section above.
- * </p>

-<BODY>
-<h3>Overview</h3>
-<p>
-Provides classes for implementing print support in applications and also contains all
-base classes and abstractions involved in printing. These base classes are also used
-by other more specialized printing related packages.
-</p>
-<p>
-The entry point for interacting with the print system is the {@link android.print.PrintManager}
-which is a system service that can be obtained from the current context. The print manager
-provides APIs for printing, querying the state of print jobs, etc.
-<p/>
-<h3>Print contract</h3>
-<p>
-An application that wants to implement printing must extend
-{@link android.print.PrintDocumentAdapter} which defines the contract between the system
-and the application.The key idea behind this adapter is that the printed content may change
-based on the selected print options, such as media size, orientation, which
-requires the content to be re-laid out. The constraints according to which the content has
-to be laid out are encapsulated in the {@link android.print.PrintAttributes} class. Once
-layout is completed the application calls back to the system passing a
-{@link android.print.PrintDocumentInfo} instance which describes the generated content. After
-the content has been laid out the application may be asked to render some pages of that content
-for preview or printing. The range of pages that have to be rendered is abstracted by the
-{@link android.print.PageRange} class.
-</p>
-<h3>Print jobs</h3>
-<p>
-A print job is represented by the {@link android.print.PrintJob} class which has behavior
-methods as well as methods for querying its state. Each print job has a unique id represented
-by the {@link android.print.PrintJobId} class and exposes APIs for obtaining a {@link
-android.print.PrintJobInfo} which is a snapshot of its state. The print job state may
-change over time.
-</p>
-<h3>Printers</h3>
-<p>
-An available printer represented by the {@link android.print.PrinterInfo} class has a
-unique id which is abstracted by the {@link android.print.PrinterId} class. The {@link
-android.print.PrinterInfo} contains printer properties such as id, name, description, status,
-and printer capabilities encapsulated in the {@link android.print.PrinterCapabilitiesInfo}
-class. Printer capabilities describe how a printer can print content, for example what are
-the supported media sizes, color modes, resolutions, etc.
