BTW the graphics is also scaled when printing.
A printer is like a super-hires monitor (ignoring dot-matrix and the like which 
would be rubbish at this anyway).
Clearly a 1 pixel device space line on a 1200 dpi printer would not be ideal 
1200/72 = 16.667 

And the logic (proposed) about adjusting the pixel width needs to be tested.

I think that unless you want to do a lot of printing testing,
then there should be some checking about whether the graphics is a 
java.awt.print.PrinterGraphics and
use some code kind of like today in that case ...
But a 300 dpi printer may be about the same as a super-hires monitor ?
Even then *theoretically* there's a chance you have a lo-res 150 dpi printer .. 
but I'd worry about that if it happens

So perhaps, this needs real printer testing printing to a real printer. Or may 
be more than one.
