java version "1.4.0-beta3"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta3-b84)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta3-b84, mixed mode)

Setting PrintService in PrinterJob running on Windows NT crashes JVM using
printers from Kyocera, HP, Lexmark and some others. Especially HP 4000 series
is problematic, but also HP 8000, Ricoh Aficio 1600, Lexmark Optra T614

You can reproduce it running the following class:

import java.awt.print.PrinterJob;
import java.awt.print.PrinterException;
import javax.print.*;

public class PrinterTest
{

  public PrinterTest()
  {
  }

  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    PrinterJob pj = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    PrintService[] pslist = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null,null);
    PrintService ps = null;
    ps = pslist[0];
      try
      {
        System.err.println("printing on " + pj.getPrintService().getName());
        pj.setPrintService(ps);
      }
      catch (PrinterException pe)
      {
        pe.printStackTrace(System.err);
      }
/* }
    else
      System.err.println("printer not found");
*/
  }
}

Sometimes the JVM crashes, giving the following message:


An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
