Have a look at my documentation for javax.print.attribute.EnumSyntax and
all will be clear. Every subclass needs two provide a static private
string table for the toString method and a enumTable for the
getEnumValueTable() method used during deserialization.

These are missing currently for all subclasses of EnumSyntax.
