Print options - UX problem

[Paweł Jońca]

Hi,

I'm not sure if it was there before the 1.8.6 upgrade, because I'm not using Designer for print, BUT I tried yesterday and I realized that the printing window is much different from its brother from Photo. I could live with that, but these options have no sense.
I'm using a large printer with roll paper and it was set to 50x70cm, what is the A4 paper size doing here??
Another issue: media type (different!) showing twice.

Sure it's related to EPSON driver, but should not look like this. I can see an "infinite" list of all printer features available.
Something wrong here.

ps. Print options window in Photo looks ok.

Cheers.

Pawel.

I can confirm in all Affinity apps on the Mac, we simply call Apples Print API and connect to that - so all the options being shown here are determined between your Mac OS and your printer drivers.

I recommend uninstalling your drivers and reinstalling the latest versions, or alternatively uninstall this printer, then set it up as a new device, ensuring to update to the latest drivers.

Hopefully this should resolve the issue you're seeing!
