Printing Error: Random Lines Over Raster Images

[ajester]

When I print a standard sheet with raster images on it (e.g. Any 3D view or Elevation with shadows turned on) The printer adds a series of random black lines over the page that do not show up in the print preview. (and no, they are not "Level" lines). I have tested with other printers and other computers and the same problem happens every time. I turn "raster processing" off in the print window and that does not work. The Attached image shows this (the red lines are hand drawn). The problem started in revit 7 (I think) and have never gone away. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? IS THERE A FIX?? - Thanks.

That's the strange thing, it happens with all the computers in the office and with BOTH our printers (HP1220c and Canon MP730).

Try turning images off manually then print.

go to : Visibilty/Graphics > Model Categories > Rastor Images (make sure you uncheck)

That is what we have had to do, but I do not want to have to do that. It becomes rather annoying when the "still images" do not update with the new work in the drawing.

Sorry, misread the question. Tested that. No difference. Thanks for your input though.

Does this happen to all your plots/prints or just on certain views of your project?
