FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode)


ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Linux macdonaldjlinux 2.6.11.4-20a-smp #1 SMP Wed Mar 23 21:52:37 UTC 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
None -- printer required to test, though

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Under the "Appearance" tab in the print dialog shown by PrinterJob.getPrinterJob().printDialog(), there is a "Job Attributes" section. Here, there is a "Banner Page" checkbox.

Selecting this checkbox does not cause a banner page to be printed on a Linux 64-bit machine.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the attached program on a 64-bit linux machine. Click on the "Appearance" tab. Select the "Banner page" checkbox. Print, and note that no banner is printed.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Expected to get a banner page.
ACTUAL -
No banner page.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
