Inkscape

trying to print a document on B size paper, but it is being cropped to 11x17. I have set the document and paper sizes correctly.

Asked by tcahall

Printing to an Epson 1400 with B size paper. When I set both Inkscape and the printer definitions to Ledger, the output is still cropped to fit 8 1/2 x 11 output. My goal is to print a Ledger size (11x17) document.

What version are you using? There has been some rewriting done on the printing side that might have fixed your problem. Please try a more recent version like 0.47pre2.

I'm on .46 I'll upgrade and let you know. Interestingly, if I print to
CutePDFwriter in B size, it works fine.

tcahall: As Pablo stated, there have been changes in the print code. The print command not using the size and rotation of the page is a longstanding bug that was recently fixed, and will be available in 0.47.
If this answers your question, please close this topic as solved.

I apologize. I didn't realize I had to close the case. The beta did
not solve my problem, but I can wait for .47

Thank you for creating a fabulous product and liberating me from
Illustrator!

Tim.
