Printing to a cups printer prints only unreadable stuff :-(
I'm running mscore-3-devel on Fedora 24 with a cups. If I print a score to a cups printer, the result is unreadable. This happens with 82a79cb. Printing with mscore-2 is OK.

You have just to do: File ->Export -> pdf etc.
Seems to be a misunderstanding:
I attached the PDF-Output only for demonstration purposes (damaged printer output). The paper output on my CUPS printers shows the same results as the Output on the PDF-Printer. So my issue is not: wrong output to PDF-Printer, but: wrong output to my CUPS printer (Samsung laser printer ml-1660).
As said in previous comment, instead doing File -> Print, etc. , have you try to export your file with the steps: File -> Export -> Type Pdf (possibly, rename your file) ->Save
(here, your file works as expected with my HP printer)
Ok, understood.
It fails also by doing: File -> Print (select, or not if default, your usual/my usual printer) -> Print
Result: the printed score is very scrambled!
So, to get a good result, export first your file as indicated above (ie File ->Export -> Type pdf -> Save)
I'll try to rephrase this issue soon.
EDIT: done #124166: Printing from MuseScore or exporting via a third-party pdf printer causes an unexpected result
I tested the PDF export function too, but the result is broken too (see attached PDF file).
Works as expected here:
Changing the priority setting of this issue doesn't matter much, since it's already been closed as a duplicate of another.
I guess, this issue is solved by the git version "c57187a", so exporting to a pdf file (works now) and then printing this file seems to be a workaround for my issue.
Printing is still broken, so not solved yet, but indeed exporting PDF is a workaround.
After an update to poppler-0.41.0-3.fc24.x86_64 on my Fedora-24-Box, printing now is flawless, so it seems is has been a problem of my Fedora 24, not of mscore-3,
