What you exactly want to do? print is nothing to do with swing specifically. Can you explain bit more your requirement.

you can use JLabel or JTextArea or JDialogBox to print.
Depends On How do you want to print, specify in detail to get specific answers

In a JTable you ca use specific structure (with columns and rows) accordingly. But if you want to display them in a JTextArea then bit of work to do. In most of the cases JTable is more appropriate.

If you have tried something show it here. Then we can comment on that. It's very difficult to guess what you have done, how your data format/store at the moment, etc.

Using JTable is much much more appropriate than usinf JTextArea.

Still if you want you can print in TextArea and make it UnEdiatble....

Please display what have you done so far, I can help u further.
