How to print many overlapping layers in different sheets

HI. I have the task of printing more than 150 technical drawings, but each drawing is superimposed on the other with a different layer. (1 layer = 1 drawing). I ask if it is possible to automate this work and not have to change layers and print one drawing at a time. Thank you

Wow, I don't know what field of practice would actually produce or compose a drawing where each Layer is a separate drawing and needs to be the only Layer left on in order to get a proper hardcopy.

You'll have to rely on a lisp function to cycle through each Layer, print that Layer to a PDF with perhaps the filename with the Layer Name appended to the Drawing name so that it'll be unique. 

But still you'll need the Plotting parameters and assuming those are the same for each Layer then it'll work.

@IONRINGACI01 ,

 

Search in the Autodesk App Store for something like SonOfABatch or JTB Batch Plot Trial.

Whoever made the drawing should have set-up a layout tab for each sheet. Are they present in the file?
