When drawing a rect using "drawRect" which should visualize the current
clip-area, the left and the top line are not drawn although
there should be enough space. I tried two different printers
(HP Deskjet 600 and NEC Pinwriter P60).

Example:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.print.*;
import java.awt.print.PageFormat;
import java.awt.geom.*;
import java.lang.*;

public class PrintTest {


  public static void main(String[] args) {

   PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
job.setCopies(1); // this works fine, 2 is displayed in the printer dialog
   PageFormat pfDefault;
   if (job.printDialog()) {
   pfDefault=job.pageDialog(job.defaultPage());
   int cnCopies=job.getCopies(); // this will always return 2 although changed in the dialog
Book bk = new Book();
    bk.append(new CClippedRect(),pfDefault);
   job.setPageable(bk);
  try {
job.print();
      }
  catch (Exception exc) {
System.out.println("Printer Exception");
  }
   }
  }
}

class CClippedRect implements Printable {
  public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pageIndex)
        throws PrinterException {

    Graphics2D g2=(Graphics2D)g;
BasicStroke stroke=new BasicStroke(0.2f);
g2.setStroke(stroke);
    g2.setColor(Color.black);
    Rectangle r=new Rectangle();
    g2.getClipBounds(r);
    g2.drawRect(r.x+5,r.y+5,r.width-10,r.height-10); // only the right and bottom line will be printed...

return(PAGE_EXISTS);
 }
}
