Model Pattern printing Black

[jwilhelm]

I have a clay tile roof pattern set to the proper size on screen about 6" across, but when I print it the entire area prints solid black, I thought it was a scale problem but it is at max scale (9) and seems to be right on screen, I am printing at 1/8" any thoughts?

Try increasing print resolution.

If it is that wavy "Spanish" tile! Then I have had the same problem. I havent figured it out yet, but I believe that the linework may be the problem - it could be too thick or too many lines in a small area and just prints as a mass of black.

Simpathy, but no solution - sorry

changing the color seems to solve it

what color didyou change it too. I've allways had this problem and just used a simpler hatch pattern. i'd love to know the workaround that gets detailed hatches to print.

[jwilhelm]

well I believe I just picked I redish tile like color

I will try that, I can't imagine why a diff. color works but if it does thats good.

I have also had this problem occur before. I find this has effect the most when I try to create a model pattern that should only used by a drafting pattern. Example, culture stone patterns from stone cad. I have attached a huge list hatch patterns that I find work every time. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
