package table;
* PrintTableDemo.java
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.print.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;
public class PrintTableDemo extends JFrame {
    private JButton btPrint;
    private JTable table;
    private JTable tableToPrint;
    public PrintTableDemo() {
        super("PrintTableDemo");
        setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        setSize(190,150);
        setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        table = new JTable();
        btPrint = new JButton();
        table.setModel(new DefaultTableModel(
            new Object [][] {{"this should print entirely", null}},
            new String [] {"Title 1", "Title 2"}
            Class[] types = new Class [] {String.class, String.class};
            boolean[] canEdit = new boolean [] {false, false};
            public Class getColumnClass(int columnIndex) {
                return types [columnIndex];
            public boolean isCellEditable(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) {
                return canEdit [columnIndex];
        getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(table), BorderLayout.CENTER);
        btPrint.setText("Print...");
        btPrint.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(final ActionEvent evt) {
                btPrintActionPerformed(evt);
        getContentPane().add(btPrint, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    private void btPrintActionPerformed(final ActionEvent evt) {
        tableToPrint = new JTable(table.getModel());
        tableToPrint.setSize(500,1500);
        tableToPrint.getColumnModel().getColumn(0).setWidth(200);
        tableToPrint.getColumnModel().getColumn(1).setWidth(200);
        try {
            tableToPrint.print();
        } catch (PrinterException ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
    public static void main(final String args[]) {new PrintTableDemo().setVisible(true);}
