Printing issues
For some reason Musescore doesn't want to print this new file I've created correctly (although it will print another I previously created fine). Attached is the file and it's respective print preview.

1.2?
Why not upgrade? 32-bit systems are also supported.
See: https://musescore.org/en/download
You can have the different versions of MuseScore on the same pc simultaneously without conflicts.

I'm not sure what a 32 bit system is or isn't. I'm running bootcamp on a mid 2010 imac OS 10.6.8/XP. Can't really upgrade OS because I'd lose programs, etc. Believe I have Muse 2.3.2 on the XP partition, but I'd prefer to do as much on on the OSX side because the keyboard shortcuts are consistent with my mac keyboard.
But as stated in the OP, Muse will print the other file I created fine, so it seems there's something else more minor going on with the software.

I only have 2.3.2 on this computer, and I can't verify your score. It opens well with 2.3.2 and the export seems to work properly.

Indeed macOS/OSX 10.6 is way too old to run more recent versions of MuseScore. That score though got created on Windows.
MuseScore 3 needs Windows 7 at least, on.mac 10.10. MuseScore 2 should run on Windows XP. On Mac it needs 10.7 at least.

The uploaded score (with which I'm having issues) was actually created in Muse 1.2 on my OSX partition. But when I booted in win XP muse 2.3.2 it seems the print issue is not extant in that setup.
It's just strange because I can print my other score I created on osx 10.6.8 in muse 1.2 with no prob.
As you can see my setup is kind of a rag-tag operation!
In anycase, thank y'all for your help

You may try to place Linux side by side (e.g.:Mint) and see if a newer version of MuseScore can work.

No, it clearly has been created on Windows (and got last saved with MuseScore 1.2), check the score properties.
I have no problem opening that score with MuseScore 1.3 (or in fact any other version) and print it, on Windows 7.
Are you printing directly from MuseScore, or exporting (save as in 1.x) to PDF and print that, or sending it to some PDF printer? The latter is known to cause issues

Sorry, I don't understand. I did that check at 5:17. Wouldn't it be possible to have Linux on osx too?

Hmm well that' very strange that it should say it was created in windows because I'm absolutely certain I did it in OSX. I don't use the Windows unless I absolutely have to for something because my mac keyboard shortcuts no longer work on that partition (which is of course pivotal when creating a score). In any case, to answer your question I was trying to print directly from muse. I can print my other score fine with same setup. Maybe something wrong with file?

If something were wrong with the file, I wouldn't be able to print.
Maybe it is time to revert MuseScore to factory settings?
You should be able to update to MuseScore 1.3 BTW

Ok will try both suggestions thanks

Hi Jojo, just wanted to fill you in, tried to restore to default settings, didn't resolve. Tried creating a new score just to see, didn't resolve. Updated to Muse 1.3, and that fixed the problem. Thanks a lot for your help

That's surprising, I don't recall such a bug, and it isn't mentioned on https://musescore.org/en/handbook/developers-handbook/release-notes/rel…

Check the page size settings. In MuseScore and on the operating system

That's what's weird It prints the other muse score file I created fine, and never did I alter any such settings. Well check that out too though thanks
