Embarrassed over Printing

[barathd]

I was asked to print out some check sets of some preliminary drawings from Revit. The results where nothing less than embarrassing. I use an HP 1220 Deskjet to print 11X17 checksets. I found I had virtually no control over what I was printing. Off center, scale ????,etc. What is the problem?

I use a 1220C with few problems except scaling on pdf

Suggest update driver first then retry

Dick,

Hate to ask the obvious question but...
Were the drawings set up on sheets?
If not, I would tend to agree that Revit has some quirks for just printing a certain area of a view. Other than that one minor shortcoming I find the way Revit prints far easier to manage and deal with than ACAD.
Even if you don't have title blocks set up I would suggest creating a blank, border only sheet family that you can use to set up your plots. Later in the project you can always substitute the family for the real title block.

Dimitri:

Yes it was the obvious - old habits die hard - still want to plot like Autocad.
