Hi,

Why is that you cannot use the JRPrintServiceExporter and supply the name of the printer using an instance of the javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterName class added to the print service attribute set.

Look at the provided "printservice" sample and see the two lines commented out. Those were for passing the name of the printer.

I hope this helps.

Teodor
