Can I print things from Applet

Dear Java Forum Friends,

Nice to meet you. I wish to ask a difficult question this time. I wish to know is it possible for a user to print a document (in fact a list of names) from an applet downloaded from my server?

I am doing an assignment on RMI course encrollment simulation program that should allow the students to print their course lists.

But applet ensure security. So I wonder is it possible for me to call the client printer to print things.

Another similar question is when viewing in browser, I have a problem of "\images\xxx.gif access denied" if my Japplet contains an image icon to display. I use following code:

ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon("images/hku.gif","The University of Hong Kong");
JLabel jlblTitle = new JLabel("Course Enrollment System", icon, JLabel.LEFT);

in my JApplet. Viewing in appletviewer has no problem. But in browser will fail. Is it again the applet secure feature so that I can't access another sub-directory in the directory containing the Japplet? How can I solve this please?

Any suggestion and coding is much appreciated.

Thank you very much.
