Bug: Cannot print if all sheets excluded from Count

Bug: Cannot print if all sheets excluded from Count

REPRODUCE: Set all sheets to exclude from count. Attempt to print and you will receive this prompt and be prevented from printing.

REQUEST: Remove this check because sheet count should not have any effect on printing ability.

 

USE CASE: My client only names sheets. They do not use sheet numbers. Excluding all sheets from count makes it easier for humans to see and find the sheets.

HISTORY: This bug was in the forums 7 years ago and reported to Autodesk Inventor engineering https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/print-all-sheets-exlude-from-count-is-checked/m-p/6908...

This seems to have fallen of their radar.

Even better, when multiple sheets are availaible but some are set to excluded you will get the same error when trying to print if you previously selected the excluded pages only. It will remember the page selection and wont open the print interface anymore... This is driving me mental! I've got to export all excluded pages for my project as a seperate drawing set and now I cant without double the workload. Just. Great. 

Just remove the page count check already (when excluded pages is turned on.). Hope this wont turn into another one of those "multiple-year-problems" again...
