Can't print in Windows XP with Java 1.4.1

I can't print in Java 1.4.1. When I call printDialog() nothing happens. I'm using Windows XP and network printers. It works in 1.3.x.
The wierd thing is, if I remove all printers in the Control Panel and then try printing from Java, I get asked if I want to install a printer. After adding a printer i can print -- once. If I try printing again, nothing happens.
Does anyone know what could be the problem?

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem. Have you solved this? Tried to install a newer JVM?
Anybody? Any idea?

Can't print on Windows 8 with Color Laserjet 1600

I installed DOT4x64.msi on my new HP Windows 8 laptop, since that seems to be the only current way to hook up my Color Laserjet 1600. The printer now shows in the "Devices & Printers" section of the control panel. But when I try to print something, I get an error message that says I can't print to that printer. I have spent nearly an hour on the phone with HP support with no resolution - in fact, after all this time, was told "this department doesn't support this printer!!!. Any ideas on a solution here? Thanks!
PS - I originally posted on a different board, but am hoping someone here can help.
This question was solved.

How can I develop co-broswing on Windows platform with java language?

How can I develop co-broswing on Windows platform with java language?
The function will be realized
Now I want to develop a co-broswing system with java language on Windows platform.That is to say I will develop
a application run on client to track the present browser.Wheh the URL address of your present if changed(for example
when you click a link or submit a form),the application will capture the new URL address and send it to the other
client that make co-browsing connect with you.The browser on the other client side will catch the new URL and refesh
the page to show the page.
The question I fall across and want to ask you
(1)How to watch system process with java on the Windows platform?Because I want to get the process information of
the present broswer,and then get the URL address of the present broswer.
(2)Develop an application to watch the URL address of the present broswer continuance,If the URL address is changed,
then send the new URL address to the client on the other side,let his broswer to show the new page using the new URL.

Paulc, A proxy server is not the right thing.
What our man here is looking for is a solution for two
users to kind of surf the net "in tandem" - when one
user navigates to a different web page, so does the
other user,
These are typically used in call center applications
where the advisor guides a caller through , say
filling in an insurance form or pointing him to the
right product specification pages.
Xing, why are you using Java for this ? You need
something that has better windows integration. If you
look on MSDN.microsoft.com and search for "explorer
bar" you will find solutions to the questions that you
raised.
There are also commercial products on the market that
already do this kind of stuff. there is one from
www.genesyslabs.com which is considered to be the best
of breed.
It is difficult or almost impossible to do this in
Java for a commercial application.
If you are developing this as an academic exercise,
give it a try. Post your email address here, and I
will contact and help you out if you like.my e-mail is below ,I want to contact you and need all of your help.

NewBie Question: Can you make a website completely with Java?

Greetings my new Fellow Java programmers. My name is Jason and I am a computer programmer and web developer. I am verse in the following:
1. HTML/XHTML
2. CSS
3. Asp.net
4. VB.Net
5. SQL
I want to expand my skills to include:
1.JAVA
2. Action Script
3. Java Script
4. Ajax
I have always wanted to learn Java and now I think it is the right time. So my question is can you create a site complete with Java or have a majority of the site functions and look attributed to Java? Is it similar to creating a site with vb.net and asp.net which utilizes html as well? Please explain. I am eager to learn this language. Thank you.
-RomDog
...ROOOOOF!

I find it strange that you have to ask this. Of course the end result will be HTML/XHTML, that's what the browsers want. I would think that if you know the .NET side of web development, these concepts (client/server technologies) should already be clear to you.
The short answer is yes it is possible. However if you want to learn Ajax/Javascript/Actionscript, I would learn those technologies before you learn Java web development as they are completely unrelated. You know that Javascript is not Java, right? You can implement javascript/Ajax in your .NET web applications already.
Before you want to learn Java web development, learn Java. Seriously, learn basic Java first. It will be a great deal harder (and ultimately a lot more frustrating) to jump directly into the web development side of Java without knowing any of the basics. One of the biggest differences between .NET and Java platforms is that Microsoft basically holds your hand when it comes to making decision about which APIs to use and how to attack a problem; Java leaves you to the wolves to select from a gigantic amount of APIs and tools available that can each solve a problem in their very own way. Freedom is great, but it can be very daunting when you are just beginning.
So before you even think about web development, I suggest you explore the java tutorial and see if you can get to grips with the language and the tool set.
[http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/]
When you are comfortable with the Java language and you are sure that Java web/enterprise development is still something for you, then come back and ask the question again.

Can't print from Windows....

Using Windows 7 over Parallels Desktop, I can't print from Windows applications....
The driver was download, but Windows keep asking to connect printer.

Hi,
since Parallels is not an Apple product it would be better to ask such questions in the Parallels support forum.

How can I compact a MSAccess database with java?

Hi.
I have a question (Please Help!!!):
How can I compact a MSAccess database with java-jdbc? Is it posible?
Thanks

MS Access database has a max length limitation of 2.14GB for Access 2000( 1.07G for Access 97), and won't recycle basically space for update/delete sql so tha it's a good idea to use MS Access database for program, which need update/delete frequent ly data. The programmers of HXTT Access(www.hxtt.net) are writing code for CREATE TABLE/DATABASE sql now. If you need a pure Java solution for PACK TABLE/DATABSE urgently in your project, you should send such a requirement to the Support page of www.hxtt.net so that they can schedule complementing such a fucntion. Otherwise, you should pack your databae manually or visit C++ code for Compact an Access Database Programmatically at
http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/data/mfc_database/microsoftaccess/article.php/c4327/ , or use Easy Microsoft Access MDB MDE Compactor at http://www.easyhr.com.au/software/easy_mdb_mde_compactor.htm.

Can i print from my ipad with an wireless printer and an apple app or do i have to have an airprinter?

Can I print from my ipad with an wireless printer and an apple app or do I have to have an air printer?

It depends on the printer and if it is shared on your home network.
I have a wireless HP printer, but it is not an E Printer and cannot print directly from my mobile device. I purchased an Epson all in one E Printer so that I could print from my tablet. THe printer cost me less than $90 at Walmart.
(Epson 600 series all in one)

Can you still access Windows partition with open firmware password installed?

Can you still access Windows partition with open firmware password installed? If so, do you still use the Option key upon restart?

I don't use Bootcamp. However, I do know that with a firmware password, pressing the option key at startup will cause the password entry screen to come up; after entering the password, you will get the boot device choice screen.
So, if Bootcamp partitions normally show up on that screen then it should work just fine, or so I'd imagine.

If someone can help me
Thanks !

Hi Ajlan,
To fix my problem, i uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and rebooted again.
For some users, this fix the problem but with some others i had to define Adobe Reader by default again.
I tried without use "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool" before and adobe reader X wasn't really uninstall.
Thanks,
