Use Output Design / Standard > Print Design to print the current design.

The Print Options dialog gives you three preset configurations:

Preset

Purpose

Standard

Resets worksheet options to default values.

Design view

Shows the design as it appears in the fenêtre dessin.

Template mode

Shows the design outlines with no stitches.

You can further customize these print options by including or excluding the following:

Option

Purpose

Stitches

Display design as stitches with or without Artistic View. In stitch view, connectors may also be shown. Use them as a guide when you save to multiple files for multi-hooped positioning.

Outlines

In stitch view, outlines helps delineate shapes. Alternatively, turn off stitches and print outlines alone.

Artwork

Include any bitmap or vector artwork in the printout.

Start & end crosshairs

The start/end needle position is included in the printout. Voir également Paramétrez les points de démarrage et de fin.

Background

Include design background if set – for instance, to indicate fabric appearance or position on garment. Voir également Add backgrounds.

Design boundary

Display design bounding rectangle and reference marks similar to the machine display. This means start and end point positions can be easily identified. When designs are located on a large work piece, like a table cloth, design extents and geometric center become important for positioning.

Hoop

It may be important to include the hoop in the printout for positioning purposes. Alternatively, use the hoop position marker to align the needle and orientate the hoop.

Hoop template

Printing the hoop template allows you to cut out the printed design and align it within the hoop. Use the template markings to align it to physical hoop template.

Hoop position marker

This indicates the hoop center and orientation for more accurate hoopings.

Work area

This lets you arrange multi-hoopings on an item or fabric to be sewn. It should be printed together with hoop position markers. Voir également Design Layouts.

Grid / guides

These may be used to help align the hoop template lines. Voir également Changer les unités de mesure.

Optionally, tick Design Information to include production information in the printout:

Information

Purpose

Thread usage

Helps you determine length of threads required and assemble prior to production. Thread usage appears below the color sequence list.

Machine runtime

Estimated machine runtime based on default machine type.

Print on separate page

Print all design information on a separate page for easy reference. For instance, a multi-hooped design may include many color changes, requiring a dedicated page to display.
