xod Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 On Windows7 the plugin crashes if we select fonts that do not contain Regular style (for example, Aharoni or Vivaldi). Windows10 treats fonts differently and the plugin works although it reacts very slowly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Your system specs look very similar to mine. It is running here OK. Can you show us a screendshot of the installed files?

Woodsy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 As a test I emptied the effects folder except the printit.dll and tried it. The plugin is very slow to open and then locks up PDN. Any ideas? Quote My PDN Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Try moving OptionBasedLIbrary v0.7.9.dll to another location (like your desktop) then restart PDN. I've only got v0.7 in the PDN directory.

Woodsy Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 OK! I tried that but no luck. I even tried moving everything, all effects except printit, to the desktop. Uninstalled PDN then cleared the cache and reinstalled PDN. Still no luck! I don't know! Quote My PDN Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xod Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) Maybe is something wrong with your printer driver? After I updated to Windows v1803 (OS Build 17134.345) the plugin is running OK. Edited January 31, 2019 by xod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsy Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I'm running two different printers. A Brother and a Canon. I just tried disconnecting the Brother (my main printer) and it does the same thing on the Canon. And everything is up to date.

xod Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 From Windows>Settings>Devices>Devices and printers you can try to change the default printer and than run the plugin again and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsy Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Yeah, I tried it both ways. I'm convinced it's a Windows thing. Unless somebody else has any ideas. Thanks @xod and EER! Quote My PDN Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusyyyyBe Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 hello, I am having issues printing since downloading two mayjor plugin packs, and did not have any issues prior to the download. The pictures are now printing very very dark. I calibrated my screen and even adjusting the exposure/contrast and lightness to a overly bright setting is still resulting in a dark print. I dont want to lose my plugins but I need to print. Please help!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeff Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) I downloaded the PrintIt plug-in and copied the 4 files as instructed then restarted both Paint.net and my computer, but I don't see "Tools" in the Effects menu (or PrintIt elsewhere in Effects). I'm running Windows 10, so I copied the 2 OptionBasedLibrary files to [my profile]\ThisPC\Documents\paint.net App Files, and the 2 PrintIt.Effect files to ...\Effects. Can anyone help me activate PrintIt? Thanks, - Jeff H Edited April 23, 2019 by jjeff Clarify the plug-in name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobFrankston Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Great add-in. Quick notes. 1. Documentation should show the layer/printIt option. I was looking in the printer dialog. I know it's in the text but, well, pictures? Thanks 2. Should force default to single sided since double-sided rarely makes sense in posters. 3. Caught the last note about putting all files into the Effects dir. It had hung on my first try with putting files in the main dir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRSwenson Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Hello. I have been having enormous trouble in getting Print It (Tools Effect) to work properly on my Home Computer. The plug in either works slowly or not at all. The Home Computer runs Windows 10 Home 1903. The printer is an HP Deskjet 1000. The system software has been updated to the last Patch Tuesday (July 2019). I have upgraded the drivers to the printer to the most recent version to no avail. However: Print It (Tools Effect) works properly on my Work Computer. The Work Computer runs Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 1607 with a networked connection to a Ricoh Printer/Copier/Fax Machine. What other information do you need from me in order to fix this plug in so it works properly on these Computers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRSwenson Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Perhaps I was not sufficiently detailed on this. On my Home Computer when I attempt to use the Print It (Tools Effect) on the current image, the appropriate windows come up. However, when I attempt to do things like change the margins it takes many minutes for the plugin to respond. Sometimes attempting to make the changes causes PDN to lock up completely. I do not have these problems on my Work Machine. I list here the diagnostics from PDN on my Home Machine: <quote> Application paint.net 4.2 (Final 4.200.7133.32960) Build Date Saturday, July 13, 2019 Install type Classic Hardware accelerated rendering (GPU) True Animations True DPI 96 (1.00x scale) Language en-US OS Windows 10 Home x64 (10.0.18362.0) (0x65) .NET Runtime 4.0.30319.42000 Physical Memory 3,533 MB CPU AMD A9-9430 RADEON R5, 5 COMPUTE CORES 2C+3G Speed ~3194 MHz Cores / Threads 2 / 2 Features SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4_1, SSE4_2, AVX, AVX2 Video Card AMD Radeon(TM) R5 Graphics Dedicated Video RAM 505 MB Dedicated System RAM 0 MB Shared System RAM 1,766 MB Vendor ID 0x1002 Device ID 0x98E4 Subsystem ID 0x364F17AA Revision 196 LUID 0x0000B1AE Flags AcgCompatible, SupportMonitoredFences, KeyedMutexConformance Graphics Preemption DmaBufferBoundary Compute Preemption DmaBufferBoundary Outputs 1 Feature Level Direct3D_12_0 DXGI Formats A8_UNorm, B8G8R8A8_UNorm, R16G16B16A16_UNorm, R16G16B16A16_Float, R32G32B32A32_Float Buffer Precision UNorm8bpc, UNorm8bpcSrgb, UNorm16bpc, Float16bpc, Float32bpc Video Card Microsoft Basic Render Driver Dedicated Video RAM 0 MB Dedicated System RAM 0 MB Shared System RAM 1,766 MB Vendor ID 0x1414 Device ID 0x008C Subsystem ID 0x00000000 Revision 0 LUID 0x0000BA35 Flags Software, AcgCompatible, SupportMonitoredFences, KeyedMutexConformance Graphics Preemption InstructionBoundary Compute Preemption InstructionBoundary Outputs 0 Feature Level Direct3D_12_1 DXGI Formats A8_UNorm, B8G8R8A8_UNorm, R16G16B16A16_UNorm, R16G16B16A16_Float, R32G32B32A32_Float Buffer Precision UNorm8bpc, UNorm8bpcSrgb, UNorm16bpc, Float16bpc, Float32bpc </quote> Since I am not currently at work, I will post diagnostics from the Work Machine when I have it.

I also attempted to have PrintIt send data to the Bullzip Print to PDF application. PrintIt worked so slowly that PDN stalled and I had to kill the process. I also read in this thread that someone used the previous version of PrintIt - Version 0.8 and it worked on his computer. I would like to try this version on the Home Machine to see if works, but I cannot find it. Can someone provide a URL to this version if it still exists?
