Acabo d'enviar el document a la impressora, però encara no el puc imprimir.

In Catalan, acabar de + infinitive is a very common way to say that something happened just now.

So:

• Acabo d'enviar = I have just sent
• literally, it comes from acabar = to finish, but in this structure it does not mean I finish sending

This is one of the most useful everyday Catalan patterns:

• Acabo d'arribar = I’ve just arrived
• Acaben de sortir = They’ve just left

So even though acabo is grammatically a present-tense form, the whole expression refers to the recent past.

Because Catalan often shortens de to d' before a word beginning with a vowel.

So:

• de enviar → d'enviar

This is just standard apostrophe use, similar to:

• l'amic from el amic
• d'abril from de abril

It makes the phrase flow more naturally in speech and is required in normal spelling.

The two el words do different jobs.

1. el document
   Here el is the definite article = the

2. el puc imprimir
   Here el is a direct object pronoun = it

So the sentence first names the object:

• el document = the document

Then, in the second clause, Catalan does not repeat el document. It replaces it with the pronoun:

• el = it

So:

• però encara no el puc imprimir = but I still can’t print it

In Catalan, object pronouns often come before the conjugated verb.

So:

• el puc imprimir = literally something like it I-can print

That may feel unusual to an English speaker, because English puts the object after the verb:

• I can print it

But Catalan clitic pronouns usually go before the finite verb:

• El veig = I see him/it
• La tinc = I have it

With a verb phrase like puc imprimir, Catalan allows the pronoun to attach either:

• before the conjugated verb: el puc imprimir
• after the infinitive: puc imprimir-lo

Both are correct.

Yes. Both are grammatical and natural:

• encara no el puc imprimir
• encara no puc imprimir-lo

Both mean the same thing: I still can’t print it.

This happens because with verbs like poder, voler, haver de, and similar verb + infinitive combinations, Catalan often allows the object pronoun either:

• before the conjugated verb
• or attached to the infinitive

So a learner should recognize both patterns.

encara no means still not or not yet.

In this sentence:

• encara no el puc imprimir = I still can’t print it / I can’t print it yet

The idea is that the situation has not changed up to now.

Useful comparison:

• encara = still
• encara no = not yet / still not

Examples:

• Encara treballo = I’m still working
• Encara no treballo = I’m not working yet

Because enviar ... a ... means to send ... to ...

So:

• enviar el document a la impressora = to send the document to the printer

Here, the printer is the destination of what is being sent.

Also:

• impressora is a feminine noun
• so it takes la

That is why we get:

• a la impressora

Because grammatical gender in Catalan is not the same as real-world gender.

A noun can be masculine or feminine even if it refers to an object with no biological sex.

So:

• la impressora = feminine noun
• el document = masculine noun

This is simply part of the vocabulary of each noun. Often nouns ending in -a are feminine, and impressora follows that common pattern.

In standard Catalan, però meaning but is written with a grave accent: ò.

So the correct form is:

• però

The accent helps mark the stressed vowel and its pronunciation. It is just the normal spelling of the word, so you should learn it as a fixed form.

Not if you want to keep the meaning print it.

If you say:

• però encara no puc imprimir

that usually sounds incomplete unless the object is understood very strongly from context. More naturally, you would say either:

• però encara no el puc imprimir
• però encara no puc imprimir-lo
• però encara no puc imprimir el document

Catalan normally wants the object to be expressed somehow: either as a noun or as a pronoun.

Not quite. In this sentence they refer to two related but different actions.

• enviar el document a la impressora = send the document to the printer
• imprimir = print it

This can describe a situation where the print job has already been sent, but the actual printing has not happened yet, or the speaker still cannot get the printer to print.

So the sentence makes good sense in everyday tech language: the file/job has been sent, but the printing still is not working.
