I downloaded a fresh set of code from the fop cvs and did find the PCLRenderer and the other latest source code. But as far I could make out PCLRenderer does not print to a printer instead it prints to a file in pcl format. Now in case of pcl as well I do have to send the output to the printer. So my previous problem remains. I am actually not getting how can I send the output to the printer. I think if somebody can provide with a code fragment then it would be of great help.
