PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

Printing a bmp image failed when print() method of Desktop API introduced in Java6 is used.
 
Calling the print() method opens the photo printing wizard, but clicking on next does not show the bmp image selected for printing.

Right clicking on the .bmp file and selecting windows print option, launches the photo printing wizard and displays a preview of the bmp image that has to be printed.

TESTCASE DESCRIPTION

This test case tests whether print() method of Desktop API introduced in Java6 prints a bmp image. The test gets the Desktop and calls the print method by passing a .bmp file. The program calls a sleep of 20 seconds for the user to print the bmp file through the photo printing
wizard.

 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1) Execute the below command:
>>java DesktopPrint

2) Click on next in the photo print wizard, the bmp image that has to be printed is not shown.

TEST CASE:

import java.awt.Desktop;
import java.io.*;

class DesktopPrint
{

    DesktopPrint()
    {
    }

    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        Desktop desktop = null;
        if(Desktop.isDesktopSupported())
            desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
        else
            System.out.println("Desktop is not supported on this platform");
        try
        {
            desktop.print(new File("sample.bmp"));
            //Thread.sleep(20000L);
        }
        catch(IOException ioexception)
        {
            System.out.println("Desktop print failed with IOException");
            ioexception.printStackTrace();
        }
        catch(Exception interruptedexception)
        {
            System.out.println("Desktop print failed with InterruptedException");
            interruptedexception.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
