Thanks Phil. Now it's working.
(I stumbled upon a way to make this work about a year ago, but for some
reason, I couldn't remember how to do it. Probably age.)
BTW - The MediaRequested reference was caused by me doing a little editing
in the original post, without compiling. I was starting to get sleepy and
delirious, i.e, careless, when I posted.
Thanks again,
Steve Sinai

You almost had it. For some reason you aren't properly using the answer
(Object [] res) you got from the service,
so you are only seeing the first of the list. And I'm not sure where you
got MediaRequested from, that
should not compile as there's no such class.
That should be
Media[] res = (Media[])getSupportedAttributeValues(Media.class, null,
null);
Then print each of the elements of res.

Given a print service from something like
PrintService defaultPrintService =
PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService()
is there a way to query the default print service to get the paper sizes
that print service (printer) can handle? For example, I'd like to get a
list back containing things like Legal, Letter, A4, A5, B4,
etc.
I'm fiddling around with the following code...
PrintService defaultPrintService =
PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
Object [] res = (Object
[])defaultPrintService.getSupportedAttributeValues(Media.class, null,
null);
MediaRequested mr = (MediaRequested)res[0];
System.out.println(mr=+mr);
and the final result is mr=na-letter.
I was hoping I'd get a list of legal paper sizes. Is this even
possible?
Thanks.
