location The location specifies the location to search in the PrintSetting library. Setting the location clears any previous specified URL.

objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
technology The case-insensitive technology specifies technology of the PrintSetting.
