I get a java.awt.PrintJob object via the toolkit's getPrintJob(Frame,String,Properties) method. Once I have the printjob, I call getGraphics() and draw directly to that graphics object. In case it helps, here are the properties that are being sent to the getPrintJob method call: awt.print.fileName=checks.ps awt.print.numCopies=1 awt.print.printer=lj5p awt.print.paperSize=letter awt.print.destination=file awt.print.orientation=portrait Again, everything works fine when I print to a file, and I can print from this machine just fine otherwise. In case it matters, lj5p is a remote printer on another freebsd machine. Printing using the linux JDK to this printer works fine as well.
