** Description changed:
This applies to a current Gutsy Gibbon amd64 installation
I have installed Java 1.5 from the repositories
Printing from any java application (e.g. Netbeans, Jedit) to a CUPS printer
does not show the print dialog
by compiling and running the following code i can't get any printers listed.
import javax.print.PrintService; import
javax.print.attribute.Attribute; import
javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterIsAcceptingJobs; /* * *
TestPrinter.java * * * * Created on 26 de Setembro de 2007, 14:52
* * * * To change this template, choose Tools | Template Manager *
* and open the template in the editor. * */ /** * * * *
@author carlos * */ public class TestPrinter { /** Creates a
new instance of TestPrinter */ public TestPrinter() { } public
static boolean checkAvailablePrinters() { PrintService[] ss =
java.awt.print.PrinterJob.lookupPrintServices(); for (int
i=0;i<ss.length;i++) { System.out.println( ss[i].getName() + "\n
" + ss[i] ); Attribute[] att = ss[i].getAttributes().toArray();
for (int j=0;j<att.length;j++) { if (att[j].equals(
PrinterIsAcceptingJobs.ACCEPTING_JOBS ) ) {
System.out.println( "ACCEPTING JOBS" ); } } } return
false; } public static void main( String[] args ) {
checkAvailablePrinters(); } }
by running the following command, the printers are listed
