I encountered the same requirements. javax.print runs well, but printers
don't recognize PDF files in native. So we generate PostScript files for
printing purpose. Users can download PDF files and can also print files in
PostScript format. It works fine.

The javax.print stuff is local to the JVM being executed. Assuming that
you're dealing with a server-side application (i.e. your question is
marginally relevant to the struts-user list), you can potentially
accomplish this using JavaScript.

But since essentially you'd have to (on the client using JavaScript):
1) Grab the file
2) Launch Acrobat Reader and instruct IT to print the file

This might be easier said than done.

But someone else might have experience with doing this using JavaScript.
The important thing I wanted to express is that you won't be able to do
it using Java raw because in a server-side application you don't
actually have any Java running on the client's machine: the java is
entirely executing on the server.
