Looks like it may be too late for you, but I don't believe that you can use the printf function to display text in Java. You'd probably want to use System.out.println (or print) and use concatentation to combine your text w/ the values of the variables - similar to how you ask for user input

 

Hello,

I know squat about Java, so take that into consideration...

A quick look at some similar pages that use "printf" indicates
1) make sure your version of Java is up to date
2) maybe (?) change the "\n" to "%n" - apparently there can be some platform issues.
