Uncomplete direct printing from Inkscape

Postby theozh » Fri Dec 02, 2016 2:31 am

Hi,
can anybody tell me why the attached pattern in the SVG is printed uncompletely?
Is this only on my system?
If I save a copy as PDF and print the PDF everything is OK.
Is it a Inkscape bug, a printer problem, printer driver problem, a Windows7 issue, ...something wrong with the lines?
Thanks for hints.

Hi.

Not sure about the printing but there are some things funky with your file in inkscape.
I'd try ungrouping objects, convert them to paths and combine everything after
>Ctrl+A, Ctrl+Shift+G, Ctrl+Shift+C, Ctrl+K

and if you want to make sure even more, convert strokes to paths
>Ctrl+Alt+K.

All the paths have the spiro spline LPE applied. Does removing the LPE fix the issue?
