print organizer hangs

Hello. This may be an obvious question or not but i have not been able to find a solution to my problem. 

I can batch print using print organizer no problem using a client's profile. But when I start from a new user profile, and i try to add files. The process engine starts but then just hangs. 

eventually giving me this message. Ideally i am trying to set the parameter of printing by element and selecting my tittleblock to a level "tittleblock" but this does not seem to have an effect.

any insights? 

  • We can be pretty sure the issue is with your profile. I would suggest you edit your .cfg file and start commenting out one line at a time until you find the culprit.

    Regarding the issue where you cannot find your .plt. You are loading a default print style from a .dgnlib file. If not sure which .dgnlib file you are using, add a file to Print Organizer and in the "Create Print Definitions" UI, click on the magnifying lens on the right side of "Print style name:" field, the resulting UI will show the name of file or files in which the Print Styles reside. Open the .dgnlib file in PowerDraft, open Print Organizer. Select Tools->Define Print Styles. Select your default Print Style (indicated by check mark). Now select the "Printer" tab. The "Printer driver configuration file:" field should reflect the path it cannot find for 11x17_bw_grey.plt". Change as necessary.

  • UPDATE: yes that is what i did. The culprid lied within my config file. there was an unfinished line that kept messing it up. 

    I deleted it and basically re-did it. Works fine now. And yeah i created the .dgnlib file and i seem to be up and running.

    Thanks again guys!
