JRSwenson Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Yes, I have Bullzip installed on both machines. As to upgrading to 2019 LTSC, that is an "if", since upgrades of this type are handled by my IT department. As to my other comment about version 0.8, is there anywhere here I can find it? I am curious to see if the older version would work on the Home Machine. If so, it would indicate to me that there is something within version 0.9 that is not liked by the Home Machine.

JRSwenson Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 What other information do you need from me in order to get PrintIt working properly? I am currently using ThatOtherApp to print the current image in paint.net with MS Paint. However, this work-around will only work as long as MS Paint is an actual application rather than an Universal Windows App (which Microsoft keeps threatening to change). Also it seems a little strange to use a second image manipulation program to print out something from the first image manipulation program.

I suggest using a different program for printing images. Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Nope. It's not broken. I have it running in v4.2.5 Here are the installation instructions again. Check your paint.net installation folder for the two OptionBased files and your \effects folder for the *.dll and *dlc files. Installation - Copy the two files OptionBasedLibrary vX.X.dll/.dlc to the Paint.NET\ folder (NOT to Paint.NET\Effects\ !!!) - Copy the two files PrintIt.Effect.dll/.dlc to the Paint.NET\Effects\ folder - Do not remove older versions of the OptionBasedLibrary if they are required from other plugins. After a restart of Paint.NET you will find the plugin at Menu->Effects->Tools->Print It Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexNelson Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 You did not pass the security check. Please try again ??? 5 times - that's enough ... "Sounds like the plugin is just broken." < correct "Many people have reported the same issue." < correct "Nope. It's not broken." < incorrect "I have it running in v4.2.5" - probably so - but the plugin is still broken - installed correctly on 13 of many computers - wXP/7/8/10 - which pdn works fine - with many other plugins installed - and only print it hangs/locks up - on ALL of them. I have been messing with print it since 2014 - requests for older versions/option based libraries were requested from others but got no response. Anyway, on one dell laptop - pdn had been installed since day 1 - multiple printers - multiple pdf printers - print it initially reacts very slow (1 to 2 min) to input or change selection - and after awhile it just locks up - like other users have commented. I keep on top of driver updates - and had installed 3 video driver updates (2016, 2017 and 2018) - and print it still hung-up. But, the latest video driver (in August 2019) was installed and - amazingly - print it now works fine. Other computers had updates (not the same), but this is the only one that works with print it. Intel-HD-Graphics-530-Driver_04WHN_WIN_26.20.100.6859_A15 from Dell on a inspiron-15-5559. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 520. It was a "security" update - so I don't know what was updated - but if you need any other info ... just ask - I'd be happy to get the rest of my computers working, too.

barison82 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hi, it's my first post in the forum. Paint.net has been very good so far, much better than I expected. I do have Adobe Illustrator but wanted to give this a go, and have been able to produce some high quality work with it. One let down has been the "print" function, and lack of any comprehensive dialog/setting. Which led me to this plugin...well, I've had the same problem as many others have already mentioned here - running things in Windows 7, latest version of Paint.net, all plugin files are installed to the correct folders, no issues with printer, or any of the other plugins installed, it's just this plugin that causes Paint.net to hang/crash. Happens every time I've attempted to use it, with a variety of images, small or big. It's a great shame as this looks like a very useful tool indeed. I've designed some 1/400 scale buildings to print as card kits, so getting the actual Print Size is crucially important. It would be great if something else could be developed, to enhance this very basic and fundamental feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midora Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 Hi @ed555 'this error' is not a quite good hint. Or do you expect that people should watch in a foreign language to get an idea. At the end you are describing that the OptionBasedLibrary files have to be placed in the paint.net folder and not the Effects folder. The documentation explains this.

midora Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 You may try this one Edit by Rick: Removed download link because this version of the plugin and OBL are blatantly violating the plugin development rules, specifically around using reflection to reach into Paint.NET's internals. OBL and PrintIt are still under rework. This is not a new release and PrintIt is still sluggish on Win10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plugin stopped working due to some breaking changes in .NET 6. @midora will need to release an update.
