Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

Hi,
I have a problem with printing on java 1.5 on XP. Everything was fine on 1.42, but now the printing stops after a few pages and the text looks poor. There is no error message when the printing stops early.
My swing application has several tabbed panes each of which is added to a Book. Each tab is scaled to fit on the page and is printed on a separate page. Each page will print separately but the text still looks bad. Even removing the scaling doesn�t help the text.
I disable the double buffering before printing.

I have tried a few different printers and also changing heap sizes �Xmx to 1g but get the same results.

Any ideas on how I can resolve theses problems?
Thanks
