I've used Qimage for over 15 years. Using the latest Ultimate version. When I place an image on the  page it cannot be moved.
It always snaps back to the lower right corner. I've tried every imaginable setting in and out of the Image Editor.
Thanks!

I have tried to repeat the problem you allege, but need a lot more information.
What size page,
What size print on page?
How many prints on page.?
What placement setting are you using? Intelli spaced?Huh? Just so I can repeat your settings?


There is a button in the Page editor that can send an image to the lower right corner (or any corner) but moving the image by mouse drag disengages  the button.
Waiting for info.

This is maddening. 14 x 17 page. 12x15 image. I've tied all the combinations of settings I can think of. One issue may be that the printer properties dialog shows printer paper/quality
info is unavailable. No matter what size  I'm always getting a too large to print on one page, even with the above sizes. I'm beginning to suspect that the printer driver is faulty.
Thanks

I will alert Mike to check his bug list for the HP Z3200, but you can be certain it is that buggy HP driver.
I have one here (44 pro pcl)

Set your placement mode to INTELLI CENTER.
That seems to fix it.

Hi, Same problem with intelli center.
Photoshop prints fine with same printer driver
Did a fresh download and install of Qimage
after uninstalling previous install.

No matter the size I pick for the media and a smaller size for
the image I get the error: too large for media, have to print on multiple pages.
I've used Qimage on the same printer for 10 yrs without problems.

Does this happen for every image you try or only for one specific image?

I'm sorry. I muissed this before.
Specifically!!  What size and type (roll or sheet) of paper, and what size print are you attempting?
Most important!!   What does Qimage report as printable area above the main LIVE VIEW screen?

I think I might have found something worth looking at.
Look at my last two screen snaps. That is shot inside the driver. Notice the little graphic on the upper right showing the "typical" print lower right of page.
I changed to MANUAL FEED, and now that is showing the image centered and in proportion.
Just have a look and a try.
