You need to check two things:
- that your resource has declared a variant with the media type
IMAGE_PNG. Ex: getVariants().add(new Variant(MediaType.IMAGE_PNG));
- the your getRepresentation(Variant) method correctly checks the
incoming variants' mediatype.

We would need some code sample to help us understand the exact issue.
