Print problem

[jack1971]

I was trying to print one form by Java Program. I have used Graphics2D to construct one grid (22X6, say). Since the form needs 1cm margin on both left and right sides, I made the grid from point(28,230) to (584,590). The form looks fine on the screen exactly the way I want it.

Now the problem is: when I tried to print the form by calling PrinterJob.print() using PageFormat.defaultPage(), which is 8.5X11, about 1 inch wide can not be printed out on both sides so that my form is incomplete. I tried to change the printer preference to set the margin as 0, it is not work right.

Please help me out.

Thanks!

I haven't done anything like this, but i guess, the problem is, that your doing some margin stuff before you print it (that is inside the graphics)

As the PageFormat seems to have margins included you don't have to do that in your document, too.

Hope this helps
