Have you tried using the java print services? It can be a pain and I've
found that it works on some systems but not on others depending on how the
printer is configured.
Use fop to generate the PDF, PCL or Postscript data, then pass it to
javax.print. PCL printing works for me, on windows. Postscript seems to
work on Unix. THe code I use is something like:
byte[] data = /* the fop output */;
DocFlavor aFlavor = DocFlavor.BYTE_ARRAY.PCL;
Doc aDoc = new SimpleDoc(data, aFlavor, null);
PrintService aService = /* look up your printer using PrintServiceLookup */;
DocPrintJob aJob = aService.createPrintJob();
aJob.print(aDoc, null);
You'll have to experiment with your installation, but that should work
after you fill in the missing bits.
