Print Distortion

I'm having issues where my 3d views look fine onscreen, however they print with distorted parallel lines along the face of walls, topo, etc. I am using the bluebeam printer.

 

I've been looking for the fix but have not been able to find the issue. Help please!

Are you printing a view from Realistic visual style? The nearly vertical lines on the walls look like a repeating pattern from the render material.

The horizontal lines on the floor component look like they align, but it looks like a different material.

Correct these are using the realistic visual style. It's not a pattern of the material itself.

Do the lines still appear when you use another PDF printer?

 

It might help if you could post the file.

Yes they do. I tried the different print options to rule that out.

 

Unfortunately it's a huge file. Over the size limit

Save a copy of the file and delete everything except the elements that we could see in the image you linked. That should reduce the size enough to upload.
