Marady, I'm not sure what you're asking.  If you're asking if you can open a
printer file using a Java class and output data to it, thereby creating a
print file, then the answer is (probably) "no".  There are numerous ways
around this, though.  Among them:

1. Call a program.  In general, this is the way we create reports.  We call
an RPG program that generates a printed report.  This way gives you the most
control over the output.

2. Write to a text file, then dump the text file to print.

What is the business requirement here?

Joe
