JDK-8038142 - [macosx] Graphics2d.drawImage is failing when printing for mac only

Description

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
  From console:
Java Plug-in 10.25.2.15
Using JRE version 1.7.0_25-b15 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Mac OS X 10.8.4

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Tried from both Firefox and Safari. Bug appears from both browsers. Works fine on Firefox on Windows.


A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Printing in Java from many sites produces blank pages. This happens on Mac only; no problem from Windows, so I assume that this is a Mac-specific bug. See e.g. the following State of Michigan sites:

http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/bcs_corp/sr_corp.asp
http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/platmaps/sr_subs.asp

Upon printing, the console reports:

Printing exception null

Before printing, when loading Java, the console also reported the following:

Missing Permissions manifest attribute for: http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/bcs_corp/javabin/TIFFView.jar
Missing Codebase manifest attribute for: http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/bcs_corp/javabin/TIFFView.jar



STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
At the above sites, lookup any corporation report or plat map and try to print.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
A printout.
ACTUAL -
Blank page.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
See above.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

The problem was fixed under JDK-8163889

Java2d code in Java_sun_lwawt_macosx_CPrinterJob_printLoop states that this method must be called on non-Aprkit thread, and in the same moment the code in awt AWTWindow canBecomeKeyWindow states that it should be called on the Appkit thread only.

Reassigning back to AWT team for the AppKit issue

Reassigning to AWT team to investigate the AppKit thread issue.

The above issue also killed the Dock until I quit Safari.

Safari needs to run the applet outside of the sandbox to be able to print. This seems to have uncovered another issue, I got an error in AWT (in 8u20): 5/9/14 9:48:09.427 AM java[43984]: Cocoa AWT: Not running on AppKit thread 0 when expected.

Could not reproduce with 7u65 on 10.8.5 in Safari 6.0.1 Additionally, it seems TIFFView.jar has been updated and now includes Permissions and Codebase attributes (which could have been the source of the problem).
