Hi,

IIRC, the problem (with 0.20.5) is that FOP doesn't use the Print API
extensively, because it needs to work on JDK 1.3...

Below is an excerpt from a thread (about 3 months ago) on this list, where
Chris Bowditch explains how he solved this :

<q>
I just open a Byte stream to our printer via TCP/IP. I didnt need to worry
about using windows or even unix print/error management. If you want to
present a list of printers installed on the O/S to the user you are going to
have to use Java 1.4. If you cant use Java 1.4 then you are stuck with using
the default printer or use TCP/IP, where the user specifies either a UNC
name or TCP/IP address and Port.
</q>

Maybe this can be of help?

Cheers,

Andreas
