Bug Description

   I imported a pdf, then cloned it to fit twice on an a4 format. When trying to print it, the inkscape just closes itself.
   Inkscape 0.46 on Windows XP Pro, SP2.
   It happens on both my home and office PCs.
   Would be interesting to know the reasons that crashed it, in order to avoid further occurences.

In this case the file appears to load properly, when I print it I get a single blank page of output, no image, no crash, no exit message from DOS.
This is probably a Windows-specific bug, perhaps a non-Windows user could comment.

I was able to successfully print one drawing. After working once, the print option hasn't worked at all. I attempted variation of the print procedure, using the icon, the file menu option and the text shortcut. It appears as if the connection to the printer is established, however no document data is reaching the printer, or something else is happing so that the print is not initiated.

Confirmed on Windows XP, Inkscape 0.46.
But doesn't crash with 0.47pre1.
Could you please try to reproduce with a recent build (http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/files/inkscape/) and confirm the bug is fixed?
Thanks!
