No, the geometry is printed at each optimization step

Dear Giuseppe,
  Thanks for your kind reply.
 I am aware that I am far for any convergence criteria. I just want to have a geometry output, just a "template" of that geometry (I am also working with another code and I wish to compare). My question is: do I have to reach a minimum convergence so that QE printed out the geometry?
  Thanks again, David.

Dear David
Preliminary note: your convergence criteria

 etot_conv_thr = 1e-1
 forc_conv_thr = 1e-1
 ecutwfc = 10.0
 ecutrho = 40.0

are *extremely* far from any sensible threshold and not suitable for a production run.

Regarding your question, you have asked for 2 scf steps and two geometry/cell steps.

 nstep = 2
electron_maxstep = 2

The code prints a *Final* geometry after reaching all convergence criteria, which are likely not met after two steps.

Quoting dldu...@uco.es:

Dear all,
I'm working with a perovskite, doing preliminary calculations. That calculations are not needed to be converged, but at least to work properly for further optimization. I'm trying to do a vc-relax in the perovskite, in order to obtain the optimal geometry. However, at the end, I don't have any geometry information. I have made it with silicon, for instance, and it works.
This is my .in:

&CONTROL
 calculation = 'vc-relax'
 outdir = '/tmp/'
 pseudo_dir = '/home/dlduran/ENERGIAS_RENOVABLES/PSEUDOPOTENCIALES/'
 etot_conv_thr = 1e-1
 forc_conv_thr = 1e-1
 nstep = 2 ! default = 50

&SYSTEM
 ibrav = 2
 a = 12.16160
 nat = 114
 ntyp = 5
 ecutwfc = 10.0
 ecutrho = 40.0 ! it should be 4*ecutwfc
