    <p>Is there any way in Java to print to a specific IPP printer? All of the sample code and tutorials I've found focus on how to print a particular type of document, using something like the following:</p> <pre><code>DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.POSTSCRIPT; PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet(); aset.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4); PrintService[] pservices = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor, aset); if (pservices.length &gt; 0) { DocPrintJob pj = pservices[0].createPrintJob(); try { FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("test.ps"); Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, null); pj.print(doc, aset); } catch (FileNotFoundException fe) { } catch (PrintException e) { } } </code></pre> <p>This snippet simply prints to the first printer found that is capable of printing the document. In my case, I want to lookup a printer by its URI, but <code>PrintServiceLookup</code> doesn't seem to support this. I've tried using a <code>PrintServiceAttributeSet</code>, instead of <code>PrintRequestAttributeSet</code>, and adding a <code>PrinterURI</code> attribute, but that doesn't return any printers. I suspect the lookup service is looking for a printer that can change its destination URI, rather than looking for the printer with that URI.</p> <p>As a last resort, I thought about just enumerating through all of the <code>PrintService</code>s returned by <code>lookupPrintServices</code>, but the URI is not in any of the attributes. The printer name is there, but I need the URI.</p> <p>For background, my webapp needs to print a barcode to a specific printer, based on the current user. Each user is associated with a printer URI, which points to a printer on a CUPS server. The printer URI is the only information I have, and I can't constrain the printer name to match the URI or a substring of the URI.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> To clarify a bit, I don't need to render the data, I just need to copy a blob to a given printer. The part I can't figure out is how to identify a printer by its IPP URI.</p>

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
