I see you provide more flexibility now, using JobAttributes we have
the possibility to choose the printer and even it's attributes.
But I miss the possibility to select the paper source, for our app
this is a mission critical feature. Please provide it and before the API
gets frozen!

Thanks

Unfortunately, kestrel will contain the final enhancements to the 
Toolkit.getPrintJob API; paper source selection will not be one of them. We
are planning to add this feature to the java.awt.print API in a future release,
probably merlin. Addition of this feature to the 2D printing API is already
documented in BugId 4212010.
