A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Code given on the above mentioned page is not compilable.

FileInputStream psStream;
try {
   psStream = new FileInputStream("file.ps");
} catch (FileNotFoundException ffne) {
}
if (psStream == null) {
    return;
}

DocFlavor psInFormat = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.POSTSCRIPT;
Doc myDoc = new SimpleDoc(psStream, psInFormat, null);
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset =
new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
aset.add(new Copies(5));
aset.add(MediaSize.A4);
aset.add(Sides.DUPLEX);
PrintService[] services =
  PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(psInFormat, aset);
if (services.length > 0) {
   DocPrintJob job = services[0].createPrintJob();
   try {
job.print(myDoc, aset);
   } catch (PrintException pe) {}
}



MediaSize class has no public attribute A4.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR :
FileInputStream psStream;
try {
   psStream = new FileInputStream("file.ps");
} catch (FileNotFoundException ffne) {
}
if (psStream == null) {
    return;
}

DocFlavor psInFormat = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.POSTSCRIPT;
Doc myDoc = new SimpleDoc(psStream, psInFormat, null);
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset =
new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
MediaSizeName MName = MediaSizeName.ISO_A4; //newly added
MediaSize M = MediaSize.getMediaSizeForName(MName);//newly added

aset.add(new Copies(5));
//aset.add(MediaSize.A4);
aset.add(M);
aset.add(Sides.DUPLEX);
PrintService[] services =
  PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(psInFormat, aset);
if (services.length > 0) {
   DocPrintJob job = services[0].createPrintJob();
   try {
job.print(myDoc, aset);
   } catch (PrintException pe) {}
}
