[JAVA2D] Urgent help printing

[Nicolas Thiessen]

Hi, i've been wrestling with java 1.2 printing api for a while now, and
i can no longer print Text using a Graphics2D context under Linux
(RedHat 6.1).   I can print everything but text, i can print images and
other graphics...   i must be missing something simple, but i've checked
tons of docs and i can't find anything...

here's what i've been using..   can someone please tell me what i'm
doing wrong?

thanks,
nic

  public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pi) throws
PrinterException
  {
  if (pi>=1) {
     return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;
    }
    Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;

    g2.translate(pf.getImageableX(),pf.getImageableY());
    g2.setColor(Color.black);
    g2.setFont(new Font("Arial",Font.PLAIN,24));
    System.out.println(g2.getFont());
    g2.setPaint(Color.black);
    g2.drawString("Please Print",0,0);

    return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
  }
