Black page (only) on printing

Postby Bianco » Wed Sep 03, 2014 12:02 pm

I started using Inkscpe this evening, all the settings were the default ones.

I tried printing: a black page came out of my printer (see a pdf version on the right of the screenshot). I thought the transparent background may have fucked things up so I setted it up to white: I got another black page out of the printer.

I'd really apprecite to be able to print it properly :)

You might try saving a copy as PDF and viewing/printing that pdf. Works well at times.
Have a nice day.

I'm using Inkscape 0.92.2 (5c3e80d, 2017-08-06), 64 bit win8.1

The Inkscape manual has lots of helpful info! http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/

Nice tip, it works :)

If someone has another solution allowing to print from inkscape, I'm still open.
