JDK-8101369 - Printing
Description
We aim to provide printing support for the FX platform.
To this end we'll need APIs to 
- discover printers and printer attributes
- set up a print job
- receive a root Node laid out for a page and print it.

ie this is analagous to the java.awt.print package in Java SE.
Comments
I vote for this ! I want much the print support by JavaFX, especially after I saw the FileChooser class in JavaFX compared to JFileChooser in JavaSE. The file choose dialog in JavaFX is better than that in JavaSE. So I hope to see also an improved print support in JavaFX in futur.
