Is KiCad 9.0 RC1 printing PCBs

[Salvador E. Tropea]

Hi!

I tried the docker images and I can't get pcbnew to print anything useful.

I know the print option relies on the OS so I don't know if this is
something particular to Debian (used in the docker images) or is a
general issue.

I tried with the attached PCB printing the F/B.Cu layers and the Edge.Cuts

Assuming that your host system is set up to use CUPS, you need to configure it to allow it to bind with the docker0 bridge network.  Or you could try to mount the local cups socket against the image when you mount.

Either way, it is going to be futzy and I would not recommend it.

I'm printing to a file. The file doesn't contain anything useful.

I'm attaching the results.

My question is much more simple: on your system, can you get something useful from KiCad 9 RC1 print?

Hi,

I'm working on Windows at the moment and the print works.

But all the layers are deselected by default, so I need to select what layer to print first (else I expect that I would get a blank page as well).

Thanks, then it works at least for Windows.

This helps to narrow the issue, now I need to know about full Linuxes, to know if the issue is related to the docker image.
