Reproduced the bug on OS X 10.9.5 with JDK 10 b09, JDK 9 compiled from the latest version of the source code in "jdk9/client" forest, JDK 9 b171, JDK 9 b166, JDK 8u152 b04. Could not reproduce the bug on the same host with JDK 9 b165. It was practically proven that reversion of the fix JDK-8167102 allows to eliminate this bug, therefore the bug is a regression of the fix JDK-8167102. Complete back out of the fix JDK-8167102 was considered as the most appropriate solution at current time which is close to release of JDK 9.

There are many threads involved but looking at this one is worrying. PrintDialog" #28 prio=5 os_prio=31 tid=0x00007fd7a5292000 nid=0x14b1f in Object.wait() [0x000070000c71a000] java.lang.Thread.State: TIMED_WAITING (on object monitor) at java.lang.Object.wait(java.base@9-ea/Native Method) - waiting on <no object reference available> at com.sun.prism.j2d.print.J2DPrinterJob$J2DPageable.waitForNextPage(javafx.graphics@9-ea/J2DPrinterJob.java:1006) - waiting to re-lock in wait() <0x00000006d6325ea8> (a java.lang.Object) at com.sun.prism.j2d.print.J2DPrinterJob$J2DPageable.getPage(javafx.graphics@9-ea/J2DPrinterJob.java:1066) at com.sun.prism.j2d.print.J2DPrinterJob$J2DPageable.getPageFormat(javafx.graphics@9-ea/J2DPrinterJob.java:1110) at sun.lwawt.macosx.CPrinterJob.getPageFormat(java.desktop@9-ea/CPrinterJob.java:588) at sun.lwawt.macosx.CPrinterJobDialog.showDialog(java.desktop@9-ea/Native Method) at sun.lwawt.macosx.CPrinterDialogPeer.lambda$setVisible$0(java.desktop@9-ea/CPrinterDialogPeer.java:58) at sun.lwawt.macosx.CPrinterDialogPeer$$Lambda$655/261391134.run(java.desktop@9-ea/Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(java.base@9-ea/Thread.java:844) We have a transition FX->2D->FX and then go into waitForNextPage() and stop there. That next page won't arrive until we start printing but the application is still in showDialog. I suspect this is a regression from the JDK bug fix https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8167102 As can be seen here : http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/e0f119ab7b1c it changed from having native call getPageFormatFromAttributes to getPageFormat() as seen in the stack trace That fix went into JDK 9 b166 (and has since been backported to 8u). I suspect this makes FX printing DOA on Mac.

Stack trace while blocked waiting for Print Dialog

I have not tested with earlier Java 9 builds. I will have to find time to do some testing with older builds. With the latest Java 8 update I can't even get a PrinterJob (it comes back null), so I'll have to file a new issue for that. I'm attaching the stack trace.

Also is this being reported as new in b171 or just reproduced in that build ? Are there earlier builds (or releases) that exhibit the same problem ?

Assign to Phil to triage, but this may be a window-toolkit (glass) bug.

Can you provide a stack trace (e.g., using 'jstack <PID>')?

The test case from JDK-8129364 can be used to reproduce this.
