Re: [MI-L] Disappearing Geosoft Grids

[Eric Gagnon]

I've seen this type of problem with hp printers. when you go in the printer properties before you printe in the advanced options. There should be a place where you can disable spool smart, enable 16 bit applications and use the print using the memory from your computer (stay in computer) instead of printing directly to the device. The length of your cable can also cause a problem like this.. more than 15 feet.. for some reason I can't explan. I switched to a print server connected to the network.. ( since then I've had less problems). You can also try using a smaller layout to see if it better.. 18"x22" let me know how it went Eric Yvonne Bowen wrote: I am using an HP designjet 5500 Yvonne Bowen, GIS Technician Strongbow Exploration Inc.

I'm using the Geosoft plug-in, and when I zoom in to the image (i.e. at actual size) I have no problems viewing the grid. However when I zoom to the full extent of the layout the grid "disappears". Sometimes when I print, the grid reappears, but more often than not the layout does not print with the grid. I can seem to get around the problem by opening up a new map window and displaying the grid, although this can be a hassle when there's a lot of info to recreate (merely cloning the map window does not work). Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks, Yvonne Bowen, GIS Technician Strongbow Exploration Inc. Suite 800-625 Howe St Vancouver, B.C.
