Exception encountered inside [PrinterInterface.DriverBeginPlot] Solution required!?

Hi All,

When I try to print a PDF, microstation V8i crashes with this error: "Exception encountered inside [PrinterInterface.DriverBeginPlot]"

Process:

Load sheet file > Print > Bently Driver > Select driver configuration file > PDF > Print  > Creating Print File......... = (Crashes) "Exception encountered inside [PrinterInterface.DriverBeginPlot]"

Please help, urgently need to print!

Thanks!

  • It threw me Lorys as it was only showing up in my office and not at home.

    It turned out to be a variable string:

    MS_DATA < $(FMG_BLD)data/;$(MDF_FILES)

    When I was going through the cfg file I noticed this and couldn't would out why the $(MDF_FILES) was added to MS_DATA so I deleted it.

    I restarted AECOsim and tested the print tool and all worked well. Stumped me as the build works on my machine at home without the error. Not sure why it was playing up in the office.

    The variable just points to:

    MDF_FILES = $(FMG_BLD)data/mdf/

    Another one for the memory bank. Never even come across this error before.



  • I have this issue with Open Roads Release 2-2022. 
    I cannot seem to pin down the error, I think my dgn somehow corrupted?
