Print

Use FilePrint (Black Only) or FilePrint (Keep Colors) to print the current contents of the work area using your computer's print dialog. Most computers have built-in PDF creation tools, allowing you to export a PDF using these tools as well.

Starting with LightBurn 2.1, the line width when printing from LightBurn is controlled by Print Settings - Line Width. If you need a specific line width, for instance to print to a laser that uses a print driver, you can now specify the line width you need.

Page Size Warning

Be aware that the page size is controlled by the print dialog, not by LightBurn. If your work area is larger than the paper selected for printing, your design will be scaled to fit on the paper.

Troubleshooting

If your design is printing too small, check the paper size you're printing on.

Beyond that, printing problems are likely to be related to your computer and/or printer, rather than LightBurn. Please see the relevant customer service resources for more help.
