Printer Support - Print Buffer Output Empty

Post by unklStewy » Tue May 05, 2015 1:25 pm

I have been building a map of Galifrey and as I go along I have been exporting images in different formats. So far I have used .png, .jpg, .pdf. I was at my next save point and I wanted to test printer support. My office printer is an HP1518CP Laserjet with PCL-6 Drivers. OWM 0.1.7 activates the spooler fine but once the printer has received the data the buffer is empty and the printer outputs a blank page.

This isn't anything I would expect to be working fully in Alpha but the button was there so I clicked it and thought I would provide a heads up.

Alpha Porn:
Base map that I started working from - Old RPG Map from Dr. Who Game

Some Progress Made - Working with different map elements - It would be nice for Mountains to auto-group together. I will make a small feature request for that.

Casey,

Glad you are having fun! :)

The printer button was supposed to be disabled since the printing feature wasn't up to "alpha standards" and got commented out. We'll make sure to disable it for the next build we make available to the Alpha backers.

Thanks!
