Print problems Mac Sierra
-
Wanting to print a simple item 370mm x 107mm and realising that SU is abysmally bad at printing especially on a Mac , I bought an A3 printer set it up and expected to have issues with SU Print.
I have discrete the Canon A3 printer and back to a an A4 Xerox laser printer.
I set up the document set up and change the camera setting to parallel projection and front view.
I set up page setup to A4 and make the page horizontal next I set the document set up print scale to the be the same dimension in Drawing and in Model after turning off the 'fit to Page'. I bring up the print page and elect the Xerox printer.
It indicates that I need 8 pages [having watched enough YouTube's to know to just accept that and return the unprinted pages into the printer, I click the preview arrows and every thing disappears nothing. I cancel out of the print page and click on the SU page and everything disappears as well=- cannot be found. Get rid of that page and go through the whole scenario again New page paste the item onto the page and proceed through al the4 steps again with the same result.
I have rebooted and rebooted the Mac, I have rebooted the printer, I have reloaded SU to no avail.
Is there another set of software out there where one can copy the SU and then print it out - do NOT suggest Layout as if I am having [and this is only one issue] with Make It then why would I be persuaded to pay for there same software with the same myriad of issues???
Excellent drawing capabilities, good to look at and make changes, [woodworking - house plans on and on i.e.] but Oh so many problems and impossible to use what you create especially on a Mac. -
I have a Mac. I don't think I have these problems. I could try to print your file if you upload as 2016. See if it's the printer , OS, or setup.

Some of what you describe sounds to me like there may be subtle defects in the model itself. Vanishing is often an indicator that there are remote entities that affect zoom-extents operations. They might also affect printing, I suppose.
