Printing - [RBP Help Contents]
RBP can output assorted items to a printer for match recordkeeping. RBP uses the default printer you have selected via the Windows Control Panel; for best results select the desired printer before running RBP.
Please note: This printed output is for your personal, non-commercial use only and may not be redistributed.
MAP
To print the current map display, with any player tracks that have been drawn, use the File, Print Map pull down menu. Unzoom the display before using this feature, unless you want only a portion of the map to print.
RBP employs landscape orientation unless before printing you resize the map display area to be taller than wide by dragging the arrow at the lower-left corner of the map. The output quality is roughly 600 dpi on 8.5" x 11" size paper subject to the limits of your printer and free memory in your device. For more output flexibility and higher resolutions, print via the RBPEdit map editor.
Windows printer drivers can be quirky. Error 480 is often resolved by shutting down Windows, restarting it, then running RBP and attempting the print again. Error 482 is often resolved by toggling the map background on/off via File, Display Settings, Map Bgnd Image checkbox, then reprinting. These problems are in third-party software, and we cannot guarantee such software will work properly with RBP.
Updating your printer drivers might resolve problems. Sometimes when we encounter printing trouble, we have installed a PDF printer driver such as CutePDF Writer (which makes PDF files from what you print, and of this writing can be found on the Web as a free download), then printed to it, and next sent that PDF file to the physical printer for printing.
