g2.dispose();
cb.restoreState();

A JTable is notoriously difficult to get rendered correctly for images (or I guess, printing). See this thread on which some of the gurus weigh in with tips.

Looking closely at the screenshots of that thread suggests that the default Metal table has no border on the far left.

The table in Nimbus PLAF does, though.
