PrintJob.getPageDimension() returns wrong value.

I have Epson Style Color ESC/P2 printer.
Under jdk1.1b2, this function returns 816 * 1056 (I think it is right).
Under jdk1.1f, this function returns 72 * 36 (definatly wrong).

Synopsis: When printing, PrintJob.getPageDimension(), returns wrong Dimension
    if the user choose landscape
Severity Impact: (internal)
Severity Functionality: (internal)
Priority: (internal)
Description: When I request a print using the following sequence:

private PrintJob ThePrintJob = null;
private Graphics PrintGraphics = null;
private Dimension PageSize = null;

ThePrintJob = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getPrintJob( MyFrame,
                                              "Printing",
                                              ( Properties )null );
PrintGraphics = ThePrintJob.getGraphics();
PageSize = ThePrintJob.getPageDimension();

It is not reflected in PageSize if the user choose Landscape
instead of Portrait in the print properties dialog. The page size
returned always suggests that it is a Portrait print. This gives
me some problems when I try to determine when to issue a page
break.
