Hi Steve,

It's been a long time since I've looked but I don't think there's a 
XMLPrinter class in Xerces-J 1.4.4 (which is a pretty ancient release 
now). If you're just starting to use Xerces I recommend Xerces-J 2.7.1 [1] 
released in July. It includes an XML serializer [2] which can be 
configured for pretty printing [3].

Thanks.
