the pang Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 we have a HP 800 it prints great plans but when I try to print something large it freaks out. It either puts in the wrong size or just doesn't print. Does anyone have any experience with this printer? Quote Link to comment
Matthew Giampapa Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 Well I don't have first hand experience with the 800PS, but a common cause for users that are getting mis-scaled drawings is the "Print Current View" option we added to the print dialog box in version 9. When this is selected, VectorWorks will print a page at a scale such that area shown by the VectorWorks window will fit onto 1 page. This is a great feature for printing a quick preview or a quick detail, but we get a lot of calls with problems like this. (Also if you are zoomed in on empty space, it will print empty space.) Otherwise I would suggest you email over a file that is giving you problems. We can always run it through our HP755CM which is the predecessor of the 800PS.

the pang Posted July 15, 2002 Author Share Posted July 15, 2002 Hi We have the hp800 not hp800ps I'm on windows 2000. How can I send you the file that just would not print at all? I showed in the screen just fine and looked like it was being sent to the printer and then nothing happened. The size wase 36" x 60". It prints plans just fine so I know the interface works.
