Although most browsers are happy to allow both signed and unsigned Java applets to queue print jobs, this behaviour is explicitly blocked by the standard settings in Opera. Although there is an argument to be made in terms of security for this, modern Java applets run in a sandbox, which means they are relatively safe to use, and Opera is the only popular browser to prevent Java applets printing by default. As Java will also ask the user if they wish permit printing (sometimes several times, depending on how the applet is coded), it can be desirable to override this feature of Opera. However, there is no obvious way to do this through the browser itself.

You will now need to manually open and edit the "Opera.policy" file - obviously, any alterations you make to this file are made at your risk.

Open the file in a text editor such as Notepad, and find the line that says: grant {.Just underneath, add the following text:
