## Interface URIException

-     public interface URIException

  Interface URIException is a mixin interface which a subclass of `PrintException` can implement to report an error condition involving a URI address. The Print Service API does not define any print exception classes that implement interface URIException, that being left to the Print Service implementor's discretion.
