Not sure if this is a bug or not:

calendar print preview looks fine, sending to printer seems to work, but nothing gets printed

same thing if I choose a pdf creator as printer - it creates an empty page

this occurs with the portable version on 2 different pcs, one running vista and one on windows nt

Thanks for any information on this,

Susanne

It appears to be a bug, as I get exactly the same thing. I pulled up the print queue, and notice it acts like something is starting to print, then the queue immediately clears.

I have successfully printed this way before, but it may not have been the latest version.

Can we get one more confirmation, before I put it in Mantis? Thanks

Same thing here.

Ditto here Preview ok but nothing arrives to printer

I'm still having the problem. See the video: Note the "two page" is blinking, which seems odd. Here, I don't even get a blank page, just a flash of the print queue icon.

And it doesn't print anything, of course, right?

Really strange. Notice how you're missing the "Printer ..." button (bottom right). Here is my dialog:

I assume that you do have printers installed...

You were right before me, Pierre. I was going to also post the screenshot of Keith's calendar Page setup with the Printer missing.

Keith, what printer have you configured ? I see that the dialog briefly flashing say : "Printing calendar on the snagit 10". Is that your printer's name ?

This is a strange one, as it is working here. Will need to investigate.

Ok, yes it does work. I think we all got fooled by the fact that pressing on Print in the print preview window brought us back to a print dialog instead of just printing... And we all pressed cancel instead of ok.

I guess that could mean that there's something not intuitive enough in the process ? Just asking.

Actually, I'm the fool here. What srv181 reports is different as it actually printed -- but a blank page.

The reason I'm showing the "printer dialog" is that the standard preview does not have a button for this. I need to use a customized print preview

OK, it seems that 1, 5, 7 day views are printing fine, but week and month views are not.

Searching codejock forum, it seems this is a bug with the version I'm using. I'll release 0.9.25Pre-Rel25 and then test it with the current codejock calendar control (they claim this is now fixed)

Yes -- these print a white page.
