Try this. I added some code to resize the image of the panel.

private void printCard() {

 PrinterJob printjob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
 printjob.setJobName(" TESSCO CUSTOMER CARD ");

 Printable printable = new Printable() {

  public int print(Graphics pg, PageFormat pf, int pageNum) {

   if (pageNum > 0) {
    return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;
   }

   Dimension size = jLayeredPane2.getSize();
   BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(size.width, size.height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);

   jLayeredPane2.print(bufferedImage.getGraphics());

   Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) pg;
   g2.translate(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY());
   g2.drawImage(bufferedImage, 0, 0, (int) pf.getWidth(), (int) pf.getHeight(), null);

   return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
  }
 };

 Paper paper = new Paper();
 paper.setImageableArea(0, 0, 153, 243);
 paper.setSize(243, 154);

 PageFormat format = new PageFormat();
 format.setPaper(paper);
 format.setOrientation(PageFormat.LANDSCAPE);

 printjob.setPrintable(printable, format);
 if (printjob.printDialog() == false)
  return;

 try {
  printjob.print();
 } catch (PrinterException ex) {
  System.out.println("NO PAGE FOUND." + ex);

 }
}
