Datacard SP25 Plus and Java Printing

[Prabu Muthu]

Hi,

We are working on implementing ID-Card printing solution for our customer using Datacard SP25 Plus and Java Printing.

We do have the following Problem:

The default and the only MediaSize for this printer is CR80 (2.13 x 3.88 inches).

When printed from any program using Windows service (for e.g Wordpad), it shows the correct Media Size.

When trying to print via Java method, some arbitrary Media Size is shown. And it varies from PC to PC.

How to fix this problem? How to implement or create custom class for this MediaSize?

Here is the Java Testing Code.

import java.awt.GraphicsConfiguration;
import javax.print.DocFlavor;
import javax.print.PrintService;
import javax.print.PrintServiceLookup;
import javax.print.ServiceUI;
import javax.print.attribute.HashPrintRequestAttributeSet;
import javax.print.attribute.PrintRequestAttributeSet;
import javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaPrintableArea;
import javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSize;
public class TestDatacardSP25 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
PrintService[] services = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null,
null);
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
// Media size
aset.add(MediaSize
.findMedia((float) 2.13, (float) 3.38, MediaSize.INCH));
//Media printable area
aset.add(new MediaPrintableArea(0, 0, (float) 2.13, (float) 3.38,
MediaPrintableArea.INCH));
PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
//Show print Dialog
service = ServiceUI.printDialog((GraphicsConfiguration) null, 60, 60,
services, service, null, aset);
}
}

Thank You.
