Yes, this is a known limitation to the 1.9 and older versions.

We have a few clients using a custom build which support multiple pages using an experimental PDFBOX build (code located here: https://github.com/qzind/qz-print/tree/1.9-pdfbox).

We plan to fix this in 2.0 which we will be starting development on in late August of this year.

Hi Tres,

I tried printing single page .pdf, but with no success. Its printing blank page even then.

Is this is also an issue and will this be fixed in coming release?

Regards,
Agam

Agam, if you'd like to send me the .pdf file and a snippet of your code, I'll try to reproduce this problem on my end. What Operating System, Printer Model, and driver are you using? Also, are you using QZ-Tray (the desktop application) or QZ-Print (the java applet)?

Agam:

You problem is confirmed. With my Epson XP-620, I have the same problem. Sending the print job through my pdf viewer produced a normal print, whereas sending it through QZ-Tray produced a blank page. How did you create the pdf? Did you use Adobe software?

Hi Tres, 

I used wkHTMLToPDF convertor to generate PDF from my HTML page.

Agam:

After reproducing your problem with the current release of QZ-Tray, we have tested your sample pdf file on a custom build of QZ-Tray using pdfbox instead of pdfrenderer, and the sample printed successfully. The PDFBOX build of QZ-Tray is available here for Windows:

 https://github.com/tresf/qz-print/releases/tag/v1.9.3-pdfbox


If you need an installer for Linux or Mac, we should have them available in the next few days. Let us know your results.

Kind regards,

Lite Finocchiaro
