I know that there are several reports that are all marked "same as 4203041"
and "fixed" and "closed" but it's not fixed.

drawString() displays on the monitor, but the same paint()method when passed a
printGraphics argument will print the lines but not the text. (example program
below).

Note that setColor(Color.black) is invoked and it doesn't help.

Also note that in 1.2.2 the same problem exists and, in addition, gave my HP
Deskjet 10.3 driver indigestion--"Printer Driver Problem. Data required by the
printer driver cannot be found or has been corrupted. Restart Windows and try
printing again." This makes me think that the problem is not in setting the
foreground color, as has been thought up to now, but in the font rendering
itself.

This code was extracted from a much larger application which worked entirely
well under various versions of 1.1.x.
