 This is most likely:
     http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6633656
 
 with a workaround described at:
     http://www.pikopong.com/blog/2008/09/09/java-printing-fix-for-linux-with-cups/
 
 Unlikely to be fixed, since we haven't had any update to jdk1.6 for
 ages. Openjdk6 does not exhibit this problem.
