I too want the ability to print a hard copy of my data. I keep an emergency binder for my family if I am incapacitated or unable to access One Password. In my binder, I keep my emergency kit AND a hard copy of the contents of my vault. I realize that your programmers want to lock things up but in the end, licensed users should have control over their data. If we want to print a copy that should be our decision. Please add this feature back to One Password 8. Rich

Thank you for the reply. With 1Password 8, your 1Password account acts as a backup of your data. If you accidentally delete an item you can always restore it from your 1Password account on 1Password.com: View and restore previous versions of items
1Password contains very strong encryption that uses both your account password and Secret Key to generate the private key that encrypts your items. We also implement various other sophisticated security features to protect your data. If you export your items from 1Password then they are no longer protected by 1Password's security features which surpass those of an encrypted ZIP folder.
That all being said, our developers are looking into creating an encrypted export. Is that something that you might find useful as a replacement for the Print to PDF and then save in a ZIP folder workflow that you used previously? Let me know and I'll forward your comments to our product team. 🙂
I tried to export the data but your choices either didn't open or failed to show me 95% of my entries...
That's odd. Were you exporting to a 1PUX file using this guide: How to export data from 1Password. The 1PUX file will contain a complete and lossless copy of your 1Password account items. CSV exports support a limited set of fields from Login and Password items only.

Just curious - did some engineer on your team just decide to delete this functionality without seeing how many of your paying users cared?

Hi - I used to print out 1PW and then save it as a pdf and password protect that pdf file as an extra back up. You have gone and removed that capability.
I tried to export the data but your choices either didn't open or failed to show me 95% of my entries...
I have been using 1 password since you started. If you don't restore my ability to print (what harm does it do to you???), then I will have to find another service that allows me to create a back up the way I want....thank you

Hallo @TMueller,
ich habe diese Nachricht mit einem Übersetzer verfasst und bitte daher um Entschuldigung für etwaige grammatikalische Fehler.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback zu diesem Thema. Ich habe Sie zu unserem internen Tracker zu diesem Thema hinzugefügt. Obwohl wir normalerweise davon abraten, 1Password-Daten auszudrucken, da die Art der in 1Password gespeicherten Informationen ziemlich dynamisch ist, verstehe ich, warum es nützlich sein könnte.
Zur Klarstellung: Da 1Password eine lokale Kopie Ihrer Daten speichert, haben Sie immer Zugriff darauf, auch wenn Sie offline sind.
Ich weiß es aber zu schätzen, dass Sie uns wissen lassen, dass diese Funktion für Sie wichtig ist, und danke Ihnen für Ihr anhaltendes Vertrauen in unsere Arbeit 🙂 .
I'm using a translator for this message so apologies for any grammatical errors.
Thanks for your feedback about this, I've added you to our internal tracker on the topic. While we typically recommend against printing 1Password data since the type of information stored in 1Password tends to be fairly dynamic, I understand why it would be useful.
To clarify, because 1Password keeps a local copy of your data, you would always have access to it, even when offline.
I do appreciate you letting us know this feature is important to you though and thank your continued confidence in what we do. 🙂

Liebes 1Password Team, Grüße aus Deutschland, wo ich soeben entdeckt habe, dass 1Password 8 nicht mehr erlaubt die Passwörter über einen Druckvorgang auf Papier zu "sichern". Natürlich verlasse ich mich seit Jahren auf Euren Dienst, aber ich möchte jederzeit unabhängig von einem Passwortdienst-/programm sein können. Eine proprietäre und nicht angekündigte(!) Einschränkung bereits vorhandener Funktionen und damit eingeübter Praxis führt natürlich zu Irritationen und erschüttert nur das Vertrauen in Euer Produkt. Also bringt diese Funktion bitte unbedingt zurück!
Deepl-Übersetzung: Dear 1Password Team, Greetings from Germany, where I have just discovered that 1Password 8 no longer allows to "secure" the passwords via a printing process on paper. Of course I have been relying on your service for years, but I would like to be able to be independent of a password service/program at all times. A proprietary and not announced(!) Restriction of already existing functions and thus practiced leads naturally to irritations and shakes only the confidence in your product. So please bring back this function by all means!

Hi @benedickmiller,
I appreciate your feedback about this and you make a great point. I've added a vote on your behalf to our internal feature request and will also share some notes with the rest of the team from you. 👍🏻
Regarding the example you provided about sharing information with trusted colleagues who don't have 1Password accounts, I'd recommend trying some of the sharing features of 1Password 8: Securely share 1Password items with anyone
I understand that's just one scenario though, so rest assured your feedback was still recorded. Let me know if you try out item sharing or if you have any questions. 🙂

...continuation: you can't stop me printing, you can simply make it easier for me. For now I have to make screenshots and print them, which is a really stupid way to print my own data!
