A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Printing to my network printer "Brother HL-2240D series" failed with a NPE. I use the PrinterJob API. See the stacktrace below. To other printers like CutePDF it is working.

The passed attributeset contains the follow values:

{class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaPrintableArea=(12.7,12.7)->(184.626,271.621)mm, class javax.print.attribute.standard.Media=iso-a4, class javax.print.attribute.standard.PageRanges=1, class javax.print.attribute.standard.OrientationRequested=portrait, class javax.print.attribute.standard.JobName=Report1, class javax.print.attribute.standard.Chromaticity=monochrome}

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u152
