printing the frame

[Y. Progammer]

I have a question :rolleyes: ?

I plotted a graph on a panel in a frame. now I want it to get print through the printer ..

For this I want to provide a button on the frame itself allowing the user to request the printer to print the frame or graph.. I m not sure exactly what to get printed technically...

But I want the graph to be printed.. any suggestions??:)

Have you had a look at the Sun tutorial yet? It might give you some ideas on where to start: Lesson: Printing (The Java™ Tutorials > 2D Graphics)

Nothing beats Sun's tutorials; for the people who sometimes refuse to read we simply regurgitate bits of the tutorials. Better read them for a fundamental understanding.

kind regards,

I second Jos's statement. While the forum is good for answering specific questions, general questions, such as how to do printing with Swing, is best answered by first going to the tutorials.
