Running DSL 3.1 installed on the hard drive.

My printer, an HP 932-c, prints from other programs but not Qcad. The drawing shows in "print preview" and when I try to print the printer loads a sheet of paper, there is a long pause with no activity or error message, then the printer ejects a blank page. Obviously the program sees the printer but nothing is printed!

Thanks, Jerry

Is your printer exported?
Does Qcad have an option for printer setup where you can enter yout lpr -h -Pprinter_name

It's talking to the printer, loads the paper, pauses for a long time then does a form feed of a blank page!
