Hi,

I have the following function which I call from a class which is a
descendant of Panel:

   public void printImage()
   {
      Frame printFrame = new Frame();
      PrintJob job = Toolkit.getPrintJob( printFrame, "print", null );
      Graphics g = job.getGraphics();

      paint(g);

      g.dispose();
      job.end();
      printFrame = null;
   }

For some reason, I get the following error in JBuilder:

Error (446) non-static method getPrintJob(java.awt.Frame,
java.lang.String, java.util.Properties) cannot be referenced from a
static context.


Does anyone have any idea why Jbuilder is considering this a static
context?

Thanks
Scott
