 CUPS, JAVA and printer
JAVA 1-6-17

Print in JAVA environnement
There was a bug in Java where people using newer version of CUPS cannot print (can’t even display the print dialog) due to a null pointer exception and this is actually a known old bug. (solved before by specifying image rotation in printer.conf
With the new JAVA 1-6-17 on ubuntu hardy, the print dialog is shown BUT when we press print button, the printer process just stopped and did not print anything.
no way to print anymore.
