Hello I am running the latest version of QCAD under Ubuntu Mate
Other programs see the printer attached via a USB and print no problem
QCAD does not see the printer and only offers to print to PDF or postscript file
Sorry I cannot trace any other posts for this
I would be grateful for any help or ideas

Re: QCAD Does Not See Printer
Thank you Andrew
If I follow this correctly the command ln creates a file which is linked to the original and reflects that file. The new location is a folder where QCAD expects to find this file?
I read the link entry viewtopic.php?f=47&t=3247 and was nonplussed when I could not find cups.conf in that folder. I eventually found it in etc/init and presume linux affords the flexibility to allow the builder to place it there
One item in consequence. QCAD behaves perfectly and shows a preview that is correct in every respect. However when printed the drawing has skewed slightly across the page and a small piece is missing. When I use other software the problem does not occur. Should this be logged as a separate forum entry and do you have any suggestion where I might start to research this problem
Thank you
