Civil 3D - Angled Continuous lines are printing "Squiggly"

[qnologi]

I'm trying to print a drawing with mutiple lines at various angles, types etc... Everything is printing fine, except for the lines (Type Continuous) which are at a 45 degree angle plus or minus, these are printing "Squiggly".

Please help!

Can you post the DWG file and a digital print (DWF or PDF)?

The PDF print doesn't show the "Squiggly" lines, nor does the Print Preview, only on the hard copy.

Just to help eliminate a few things. If you plot the PDF do the lines appear squiggly?

After printing the PDF which while open in Adobe looked fine, it printed the lines "Squiggly". I also created an entire new drawing and drew some angled lines, after printing that drawing, it too had 'Squiggly" lines. I believe this to be a Printer problem and not an AutoCad problem. We just recently our printer serviced and they upgraded and updated a few things which may be the culprit. Thank you for your help.

If it looks right in the PDF, then it sounds like your hardware (printer) is introducing this effect.

That's why I asked. Looks like the resolution on your KIP 3000 is degraded.
