gonen Posted November 24, 2000 Share Posted November 24, 2000 While printing several documents via Hp750c or HP1050C the output document becomes v. v. big (bigger than the same document printed from MiniCad 7)and with printing mistakes which do not exist if the document is translated to MiniCad 7 prior to printing order.

Guest Posted November 30, 2000 Share Posted November 30, 2000 Gonen, Unfortunately, I am unaware of this particular problem, as are others in Tech Support and our print applications developer. I know that there were some issues with the 1055C driver that another user brought up in the past and they found using the 755c driver that it resolved the issue, however this was not a size relation issue. We use an HP 755cm plotter at Nemetschek, N.A. quite often. In fact, it is the most frequently used by Tech Support of all our in-house plotters. Perhaps another user has heard of this and might be of more help. The most I could suggest at this time is double check to be sure that you are not scaling the plot in VectorWorks and perhaps try using the 755 driver for both plotters to see if this might solve the problem. VectorWorks does create a larger plot file size (actual size of a .prt file), however not an actual plot on paper. If this problem persists, please contact Technical Support and we will be glad to work with you on this trying to duplicate the results you are receiving. ------------------ Brian O Nemetschek North America Technical Support Specialist Quote Link to comment
Thomas Ames Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 Brian O, I've just got to ask... I'm using the new HP-800PS. When printing arch C in the landscape mode, the drawing comes out upside down. That is to say that the roof appears fist. I've spent several hours over the past few weeks with some HP tech support folks working on this. We've had no success and have consummed a great deal of paper. The only plus so far is that they have sent me a complimentary roll of paper. On your 755, if you print in the landscape mode, what comes out first? I'm learning to live with with watching the drawing print upside down, but it's a bit odd and disappointing. What are you guys using for a driver for windows? Thanks. Quote Link to comment

I was very interested to read this comment about issues with 1055's. We have 5 different printers and plotters, including an HP750+ and an HP1055CM. A problem has appeared which is only happening on the 1055CM. A filled object has been drawn overlaying a pattern. On all the other printers the filled object is displayed correctly, but the 1055CM seems to give a partial transparency of the fill with certain colours so that the pattern behind is partially printed. For example a window can take on the brickwork pattern of the wall which it is set into. It is very strange. I am using Dual 450 G4 with OS9.0.4 and Adobe 8.5.1. Have tried different versions of Adobe and Laserwriter drivers with same result. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated... Quote Link to comment
acepernich Posted December 2, 2000 Share Posted December 2, 2000 YES!!! I have the same problem with patterns showing through filled objects (same thing - only the HP1055CM, Laserwriter driver, no problem on other printers, etc.). I posted this problem a while back, but got no response or reply that others had had the same problem. I hope someone knows something about this.
