PrintServiceLookup returns null in any case.. (linux box using cups)
Hello!
I'm new to printing with java so maybe I do something wrong. Currently I'm reading the "Java Print Service API User Guide" [1] but the PrintServiceLookup Class still return null in any case. I tried:
PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService() -> null
PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null, null) -> returns an empty array
PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null, new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet()) -> returns an empty array
I'm using gentoo-Linux with cups version 1.2.7 installed. I've also some printers installed:
$ cat /etc/printcap
# This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
# /etc/cups/printers.conf file. All changes to this file
# will be lost.
