In the future, Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing fourm.
It spams me with key released if I hold down return/enter. In Windows you only get repeated keyPressed events (which I think is correct), but in some other OS I believe keyPressed/keyReleased pairs are generated (which I believe is your problem).
You have an answer but (for what its worth) here is another approach that prevents the ActionEvent from being fired more than once while the Enter key is being help down:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TimedActionListener implements ActionListener
     private int interval;
     private Timer timer;
     public TimedActionListener(int interval)
          this.interval = interval;
          timer = new Timer(interval, new ActionListener()
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                    timer.stop();
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          if (timer.isRunning())
               timer.restart();
          else
               timer.start();
               System.out.println("Action Fired");
     public static void main(String[] args)
          JTextField textField = new JTextField(10);
          textField.addActionListener( new TimedActionListener(550) );
          JFrame frame = new JFrame();
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
          frame.add(textField);
          frame.pack();
          frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
          frame.setVisible(true);
}
