FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0_12"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_12-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.2-b01, mixed mode, sharing)


ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Linux bisonws0043.bissoldom.local 2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Sat Aug 15 00:44:39 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When calling the test code you will get the following output if no other printer are configured on the system:

[rep@bisonws0043 PrintserviceTest]$ java -jar test.jar
check printer name of service Dummy Printer : myDummyPrintService
correct printer service do print...
job name: null
copies: null

I would expect that the PrintRequestAttributeSet passed to the DummyDocPrintJob would contain the attributes
javax.print.attribute.standard.Copies and javax.print.attribute.standard.JobName with the correct values (2/"myJobName").

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Execute Test.main()


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
