How to retrieve the data from a jsp page for print?

Question

i have a dynamic jsp file which will get the data at runtime.I have a print button in the jsp.When i chick the print button it should capture the data from the jsp and print it as LANDSCAPE mode. Now i am using Java Api for this
          Following code is a working sample which prints some data in LANDSCAPE mode..This is working fine....How can i modify this to get the data from a jsp?....I am using weblogic workshop for development
          package Awtjava;
          //working example
          import java.awt.*;
          import java.awt.print.*;
          public class testPrint implements Printable {
          private static String s[];
          private static Font f;
          private static int nLines;
          public static void main (String arg[]){
          s = new String[10];
          f = new Font("Arial", Font.PLAIN, 11);
          int i;
          s[0] = "This is a printer test";
          for (i=1; i<10; i++){
          s[i] = "The next line";
          nLines = 10;
          testPrint.printa();
          public static void printa(){
          System.out.println("public static void printa () ");
          PrinterJob pj=PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
          Book b = new Book();;
          PageFormat pf = new PageFormat();
          pf = pj.defaultPage(pf);
          b.append(new testPrint(), pf, 2);
          pj.setPageable (b);
          try{
          if (pj.printDialog()){
          pj.print();
          catch (Exception e) { System.out.println ("Error"); }
          public int print (Graphics g1, PageFormat pf, int n){
          System.out.println("public int print");
          int x,y,i,fa,fh;
          FontMetrics fm;
          Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) g1;
          pf.setOrientation(PageFormat.LANDSCAPE);
          fm = g.getFontMetrics (f);
          fa = fm.getMaxAscent();
          fh = fm.getHeight();
          x = (int)pf.getImageableX();
          y = (int)pf.getImageableY() + fa;
          g.setFont (f);
          g.setColor(Color.black);
          if (n==1){
          for (i=0; i<10; i++){
          g.drawString (s, x, y);
          y += fh;
          return PAGE_EXISTS;
          else {
          for (i=10;i<10; i++){
          g.drawString (s[i], x, y);
          y += fh;
          return PAGE_EXISTS;
          Hope you will reply soon...
          Thanks in advance

Hey, I got a doubt that who will call the print method in the same program and what about the g.drawString() it is showing any output effect. Finally how the variable n will get initializing to 0 and 1 for two times respectively. Can u please elaborate on this...
