IBM’s VisualAge for Java complains when you try to load J2PrinterWorks.jar because it is unable to find the class PrintRequestAttributeSet. This class was new in JDK 1.4 and is only used by our J2Printer14 class. IBM’s VisualAge for Java still uses JDK 1.2.2 and doesn’t know about the new JDK 1.4 classes. However, despite the error message, you will be able to use J2PrinterWorks inside VisualAge as long as you don’t use the J2Printer14 class. Alternatively, you can simply remove J2Printer14 from J2PrinterWorks.jar using the Java jar tool (or WinZip).
