Trouble Printing Mac OS 9.2 V11


Recommended Posts

Using Vectorworks 11 on an iMac using System 9.2 and trying to print to laser or plotter using 'laserwriter 8' Every time I go to 'page set-up' or 'print' it immediatly crashes. Get error 2, but have plenty of memory and have tried several memory configurations. Have gone two months now having to export files to vw8.5.2 in order to print or plot.

Can anyone help? [Confused]

Start with Mac OS 9 all extension set and see if the problem repeats.

An error type 2 is either an extension conflict or memory related.

If restarting with Mac OS 9 all repeats the problem, you need to look at the memory settings for VW.

How much built in memory do you have?

What are your memory allocation settings for VW 11?

What other programs are you running while VW, including startup extensions and programs?

I too have been having trouble printing 11 with sytem 9.2.1. I tried upgrading my system to 9.2.2 and opened a can of worms I am still trying to put back.

I have been able to print simple drawings but when I get to complex stuff, 3d dtm in particular, it does just what you have seen. After I restart, the print job sometimes finishes.
