A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Today I found yet another bug in the sun.print.CUPSPrinter class, which as well is responsible for the following NullPointerException (especially in a multi threaded application, see as well Bug ID 6390756):

    java.lang.NullPointerException
            at sun.print.IPPPrintService.findCustomMedia(IPPPrintService.java:845)
            at sun.print.UnixPrintJob.print(UnixPrintJob.java:328)
            ...

In the source of class sun.print.CUPSPrinter, I saw that the variable "initialized" was on the one hand a static variable and on the other hand used to control the initialization of instance variables (im particular the array cupsCustomMediaSNames) in method initMedia(). This of cource causes trouble when more than one CUPSPrinter instances are created, without calling initMedia() immediately after instantiation (to be precise: before the next CUPSPrinter instance is created).



REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced often.
