Beginners' Questions Print only printing part of object

    I have searched all areas of Inkscape and cannot find any remarks about this problem.

    I have created a large image of a building that prints exactly as needed. However when I add the last part the printer will only print the first part of the objects,

    InkscapePrtScrn shows the image as produced. The main part of the building prints perfectly. However when I add the elements on the left (the long thin objects ) only the topmost parts will print (see InkscapePrtScrn2).

    I have tried saving and exporting as various types of file, bmp, png, jpeg, gif etc. Nothing makes any difference.

    I am using Inkscape 1.2 - Inkscape 1.2.1 (9c6d41e410, 2022-07-14), on Win 10 pro.

    The file was created in Inkscape with clipped object and pasted objects from the file. I have tried raising and lowering the layers to no effect. I am expecting the whole file to be printed but only get the results from PrtScrn2.

    I am using 2 screens but using either one makes no difference.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    I'd try saving a copy as PDF and printing from Adobe Reader.

    Thank you. That worked perfectly, and so simple. One thing I had not tried. I will remember that for the future.
