Please do not multi-post. I have cross-posted this to the two groups where I
read your posts.

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
       throws ServletException, IOException {

        String strId="QI0001";
        ByteArrayOutputStream baosPDF = generatePDFDocumentBytes(strId);
        response.setContentType("application/pdf");
     response.setContentLength(baosPDF.size());
        ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
        baosPDF.writeTo(out);
        out.flush();
        try {
             if (showPrintDialog){
             if (printJob.printDialog()){
                 printJob.print();
             }
                 }
             } catch (Exception PrintException) {
              PrintException.printStackTrace();
}

Are you mixing Swing and servlets? That doesn't work.

If you are writing a web app, which is not clear here, the PDF display in the
browser will include a print button.

Who do you imagine would respond to a server-side print dialog?

I get print dialog box

Where?
