Problems printing with java application

In a java application, I send a document to print to an already installed printer in the network (and when I send a test page from the computer, it does recieve and print it), but that document never reaches the printer and in the console I receive an error that looks like this:

java.awt.print.PrinterException: Printer is not accepting job.

I don't have any idea of why printing within a java application does not seem to work under Ubuntu and MEPIS. I have tried it under Fedora and it does work. I was just wondering if anyone had an idea on what might be happening with the printing and how to make it work. Thank you.
