Revit 2016 will not print certain sheets in a set

We have tried this with multiple printers in our office - even Adobe PDF, but, certain sheets in a drawing set will never print no matter what we do.  In some cases, Revit will even crash while printing.  This problem is not confined to any single drawing set either.  I have installed the latest updates for Revit and have flashed the firmware and upated drivers for the plotters.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I read this on an autodesk help page, but I had to go to the printer properties in in windows not revit to find it.

 

"Only a portion of a print job comes out on a sheet

Several printers have limited on-board memory to process print data.

When printing large format sheet sizes to plotters such as the HP DesignJet, change the plotter's settings so that the data is processed in the computer.

To change the settings, click (Print). Select the correct printer, and click Properties. In the dialog, click the Advanced tab. Select the option to process the document in the computer, and click OK."

 

Maybe this will be the culpruit. I know I have had to toggle this setting before in the past in autocad.

Thanks. We used to do this when we had older plotters and were printing large files, so I don't know why it didn't occur to me to try this. 😞

 

We will see if it works.
