Hi,

This works ok for me using cups 1.1.23 on 6.1-release. Printers
get listed and the circle and rectangle are printed without
exception.

Do you have cups-lpr installed? That's required for java
printing with cups. Also make sure the /usr/bin/lp* symlinks
to /usr/local/bin/lp* are still intact, if not reinstall cups-lpr.
