Recently Catia V5 R14 stopped printing on the network plotter. It will print to other printers on the network and other programs on the same computer will print to the plotter.
When I try to print with Catia it tells me the print job was sent but the print icon disappears as soon as you click on it. It worked fine the previous day which makes me think its a corrupt Catia file. Is there a way to reset the Catia printer settings or does anyone have any idea what is going on?

Will anything else print to that printer? Word or something? What about another Drawing? Can anyone else print to it?

I suspect it's in the Printer or the Print Driver.
 
"It will print to other printers on the network and other programs on the same computer will print to the plotter." No one else has a problem printing.
 
Does anyone else have trouble printing to that printer from your computer? Do you have trouble printing to that printer from someone else's computer?

If the problem follows the computer, it's in the driver on the workstation. If it follows the user, it's in the user settings, and delete them.

Sorry I missed the first sentance of your first post [blush]
 
Will deleting all the Catsettings files reset Catia settings?
 
I had someone else sign on to this computer and their settings weren't referenced to the network ones. I wasn't able to print. As far as I know, the plotter driver is on the network. Is there a way to disable the standard windows driver? I can't seem to find it listed anywhere.
 
I suspect you need un-install and re-install the driver. Get your System Admin to do this for you.

If that doesn't work, I suspect that you will need to get your system re-loaded.
