Print Settings sends file off to print?
« on: December 14, 2014, 06:38:09 pm »

Weird thing in LR5.7 ...

When I hit the printer key to check settings it goes into settings,
but also my Print Preview comes up as if I sent off a print job. Wondering if anyone else has seen this.
(Its done the same to either printer models.

Yes, same here. Definitely a bug.

They changed the way the print buttons worked from about LR5, and it's been like it since then.

"Page Setup..." just does settings
"Printer..." allows you to do settings, then it prints
"Print" just prints - no settings window first.  

I'm not sure if it's a bug, or just misleading labels on the buttons.  Page 42 in the help pdf file (version "6/14/2014") implies that "Printer..." shouldn't then print, but if not, it would be the same as "Page Setup..." and there would be no point in it, so I think it's probably meant to work that way.

It isn't working right, as Print should be the only one sending off a print job.

Your right it has been like that for some time, I can remember when.
