Becareful to what packet node you connect to. Some node filter out all spots made by USA stations. Do a sh/dx/100 and see if you see any USA spots. Try N7US then look for a node closer to you. another solution is to set/filter A,K,N,W,VA,VE/PASS This will only let you see spots made by USA and Canada stations.

I use metric mesurements horizontal 6mm and vertical 5mm then next the SIZE of the print area horizontal 140mm vertical 90mm Then next is DISTANCE and as you are defining one card only these should be 0 in both windows last row is NUMBER and as this is a single card both window should show 1 click on the Printer TAB and be sure your printer is showing if not then select it. click on EXPORT tab and ensure printer is selected as output device The TEMPLATES tab is not required as this a custom template for 4x6 QSL cards printed with a 1/4 inch border which is clear Be sure to click on OK and the bottom of the window to save the changes for this project. Now view the project in the editor and you may want to move things around a bit to suit your likes Do a save now to preserve your work Then print a sample to see the result. You may need to adjust the parameters a bit to suit your printer. Use a ruler and check you design for distance from edge on all four edges and determine if you need any changes My numbers work for my I560 but I know from experience that if you change your printer or use a different one from the printer used at time the design was made these values may change and will only be a starting point. regards Garth
