Printing issue

PhillT
I have printed .dxf files without issue up until today, when Librecad  will no longer send any files to the printer.

I have checked the printer etc by sending other files and they print just fine.

Not sure if it is related, but I used to be able to open Librecad and see a file by choosing a .dxf file and use the "OPEN" command, but now Librecad does open, but to a new untitled file, which I have to close, then choose "file-open"

Files are showing up in Print Preview, saving seems OK, just will no longer send info to the printer.

Version: 2.1.3
Compiler: Clang 8.0.0
Compiled on: Sep 22 2016
Qt Version: 5.6.1
Boost Version: 1.60.0
System: OS X 10.13

Thanks for any help you can offer.
Cheers,
Phill

Until a better solution is found, are you able to export in PDF format and print the PDF from a PDF viewer ?

I don't know about OS X, but in Windows it can happen that in the Windows printer driver "print to file" is ticked, I suspect this happens when you previously have tried to print while the printer is offline.
Something similar possible with OS X?
