Title: Printing and Aperture 1.1
Post by: ricwis on April 13, 2006, 10:52:54 am

Apple released the Aperture 1.1 release today.  I've downloaded and installed the upgraded version, hoping some printing problems were fixed.  Seems like the same problem is still there.  I am using the Kodak 1400 printer with the 8.5x14 paper kit.  This allows me to print an 8x12 print.  Aperture, however, does not.  Aperture will not even allow an 8x10 print.  To print a landscape print at 8 inches wide, the border can only be .25 top and bottom but Aperture will not allow anything less than .50, scaling the image to that size.  This is the same problem I had with version 1.

Choosing a custom size does not work as it messes up the paper and ribbon feed in the printer.  Aperture should let me choose the border size instead of forcing something that does not work.

Any ideas thatt might resolve this problem would really be appreciated.

Thanks for the link.  I checked it out but none of the returned results indicated they were for the problem.  There were lots of solutions for stress, which is what is the result of this printing problem.

I've spent a lot of time trying all kinds of things and nothing works.  Still no 8" prints.

Same problem here. I  put in the bug report for Aperture 1.0, and indeed, it's not fixed.

I have recently found Econ technologies 'Prints & Portraits' - very good value for money layout printing app - works like a charm with my 1400.
