Having trouble printing my 3d model in paper space

I am having a problem with all of my lines showing up on my prints when printing a 3D model. When I do a print preview, all of my lines show up but when I print to an actual sheet of paper or to PDF, the lines do not show up.

 

See attachments.

I've had this trouble for years, it's common in MEP too with pipes, ducts etc going missing. There are other threads on the forums about it but have never come to a foregone conclusion. HIDEPRECISION helps but it is an annoyance which I hope will be dealt with one day. Unless anybody has any other advice?

I did try the HIDEPRECISION command but found it didn't help. I had a couple co-workers print the model out and it printed just fine. I think I have a setting that I am missing but just can't find figure it out yet. Thanks anyway.

Maybe try  DISPSILH = 1

Unfortunately DISPSILH = 1 didn't work either.

HIDEPRECISION is one thing, and it's good that you chaged that to "1", but you might also try
INTERSECTIONDISPLAY and change that to "1" also. 

Does that help?

I have had better luck printing 3D hidden from Modelspace than Paperspace layouts.

 

Would you mind attaching a sample drawing?

INTERSECTIONDISPLAY set to <on> worked. Thanks for the help.
