I think you could try to:

  void jComboBox1_itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) {
    System.out.println("Begin jComboBox1_itemStateChanged");

    if ( e.getStateChange() == e.SELECTED ) {
         // this will only happens once per selection
         // Do whatever you want to do
    }

    System.out.println("End   jComboBox1_itemStateChanged");
  }

This way you dont do anything when the "DESELECT" event fires.

or

 you could listen for the ActionEvent instead, it only fires ones.
