Random Missing Graphics

[troberts]

We have 10 different computers all running XP Pro and AutoCAD 2007. WE are plotting to an Océ TDS 400. Every once in awhile when plotting from a sheet set some graphics will not show up. We will get maybe a half of a word here and there, some linework may be missing, it varies from time to time. We do not have this problem if we plot the sheets individually. Is anyone else having a similar problem.

Yes, there have been many complaints about this. However, it is not SSM-related.

Yes, we have been experiencing this as well. Our issue is that it is so random we cannot track it down. And we need to plot these items. This is an emergency for us. Can anyone help?

the only time I noticed random graphics missing from plots (not consistent)

sending multiple drawings to network plotter,

"failed to print" dialog showing up on server, with several drawings in queue.

others were clicking "X" in corner to close dialog, but they were "canceling drawing"

i posted sheet to have them click "retry" or "r" on keyboard to close dialog

No, that is not what we are experiencing. We get the entire sheet set plotted without any problems or warnings, BUT on some of the sheets, random pieces of text or graphics are missing. If we print multiple copies the missing graphics may vary from copy to copy. Some copies will not have any missing graphics.

I'm telling you... the software is at fault. And Autodesk needs to be made aware that you too are experiencing the issue. Get your reseller involved. This is a serious issue.
