[JAVA] get a list of printers

le tanard -

Hello,

I’m developing a Java application in which I need to have a list of printers available on the system.

The problem is that I’m getting a bit lost: I’ve seen how (with which classes) to change all the settings, but I can’t seem to retrieve a list of printers.

Has anyone here already done this, or have a solution?

Thanks for your help

    public void getAllPrinter(){
    PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
    DocFlavor flavor =DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
    String mime =flavor.getMimeType();
    PrintService printService[] = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor, pras);
    PrintService defaultService = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
    for(int i=0;i<printService.length;i++){
    System.out.println(printService[i]);
    }

    ça renvoie par exemple :
    Win32 Printer : Microsoft XPS Document Writer
    Win32 Printer : HP Deskjet 3920/3940
    Win32 Printer : CutePDF Writer
    Win32 Printer : Brother HL-5270DN dev
    Win32 Printer : Brother HL-5270DN autre

    a toi de faire le decoupage par un split.
