Trying to print with inkscape

Postby Dman » Wed Feb 17, 2010 11:49 pm

When i want to print something from inkscape my printer say I'm not using a regular sized piece of paper and it wants me to load paper in the rear tray.
If i print something from any other program on my PC it takes paper from front tray (normal place for paper to come from).
What have I done?
With my older version of inkscape I didn't have this issue.
Thank you

hi Daryl. Please look in your inkscape file menu for the item document properties. in this dialog check to make sure that your doc is not set to A4 which looks much like US letter which is probably what you need to print (i am assuming you are in the US!) If this happens every time there are ways to fix it post back if it works
Your mind is what you think it is.
