“PrinterException: Paper's imageable width is too small” I can see what's wrong, but how can I fix it?

Question

I\'m getting this error when I try to print something for a specific label printer in my current college project:

java.awt.print.PrinterException: Paper\'s i         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem with Dymo 420P.

Try setting imageable area to the same size as paper and origin 0,0. Then after PrinterJob.printDialog(), call PrinterJob.validatePage() with your pageformat. It will return valid pageformat with proper imageable area.
