Intermittent Curtain Wall Panels not Printing

[mnielsen]

We've had some issues that have come up in the past with intermittent Curtain Wall panels not printing. We first noticed this with PDF exports, but then tried printing straight to our printers and plotters with the same result. This was also first discovered in version 2013, however I've opened the same files in 2014 and 2015, and the same issue occurs. If we plot the same view using the Raster Processing option, they do print, however the quality of the plot is diminished.

Has anybody else encountered this issue?

Yep. I've noticed it with lots of things, not just curtain panels. Anytime you get to much graphics on a sheet and try to print vector, you tend to loose information.
Since we've noticed this starting in 2012, we've just always printed Raster, at High quality.
I wish adesk would do something about it. You get the same results printing DWF's as well.

If you change your Visual Style: to Hidden Line, this should fix your problem. I struggled with this one for a while I had two views one for Mechanical and one for Electrical of the same room and couldn't for the life of my figure out why the curtain panel on one view was visible in Vector prints and the other wasn't. Saying that, changing to Raster prints didn't work for me either.
