Printing in Sandbox

[Jessica Finley]

Hiya,

It appears that trying to print, even using the standard native dialog, causes a sandbox violation - in both JDK 7 and JDK 8.  Below is a sample class which needs to be bundled into a sandboxed app to show the problem (kudos to Abhinay as this is just a slight modification of his print code submitted a few days ago).

The violation occurs after you dismiss the native print dialog by pressing its Print button.

I've also noticed that if you then let the app run untouched while, for example, you type up an email, it continues to throw sandbox violations of the same nature.

Is there something I'm missing?  I do have the com.apple.security.print entitlement set to true…  This seems like a nasty bug…
