Mickey Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I have a file that when I send it to the 500 it only prints the first 3 inches of the drawing then it spits out the rest of the sheet blank. Printing to a HP Design Jet 455ca has no problems at all. What gives? This is a W2k based machine printing to a networked HP500 Quote Link to comment
0 Mickey Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 I have new information. Working on a differnt file. I'd hit print, and it would go through the motions, and nothing at all would happen. So I oppened the print spooler, and tried several more times. The document would spool up but no data would get sent to the printer. I tried a third file and it printed just fine Ok what was differnt in file #3 was that no layers where greyed out. I went back to file #2 and turned all the layers on and it printed no problem. I went back to file #1 turned all layers on and it printed no problem as well. Bug? Is there anything I can do about this? Quote Link to comment

0 Kurt Magness Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 sounds like a corrupted font to me. look at the 3" print out to see where it stopped. is there anything obvious there? Quote Link to comment

0 laldenj Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Sorry I didn't see this issue earlier. The fix for this type of problem on my 500 has been to simplify all of the viewport crop polygons on the printing sheet. Reduce crops to 8 handle rectangles and the printing issues disappear. Have no idea why. Quote Link to comment
