Symptom #1: After printing a sheet in AutoCAD (both in AutoCAD 2007 and 2008), the BHATCH / HATCH command no longer allows the hatch dialog box to pop up.

Symptom #2: See the following picture: The Disappearing Toolbar... After printing to the KIP (using the HDI driver) and closing the file, the toolbar disappears...

The only workaround we have found is to completely close AutoCAD and reopen it -- This does not seem (to me) to be the best solution...

We've got:
- Kip 3000 printer
- AutoCAD 2007, 2008
- HDI9 driver

AutoCAD Text Window Output:

Command: *Cancel*

Command: h
HATCH
Command: h
HATCH
Command: h
HATCH
Command:

(And nothing ever pops up -- it seems to just ignore the command...)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Chris

Is this on all your workstations or just one? Are you printing using the PC3 driver or the windows driver? What version driver are you running?

We're using the PC3 driver (HDI, version 9). It does it on all of our workstations.

So you've had this problem before?

Where can I get the HDI-9 v3.20 driver?

Thanks!!

Well, I tried version 3.2 and it continues to produce this anomaly...

Thank you to kiptunes for the advice and where to find the driver..!

Is there any way it's a setting within AutoCAD? I pretty much have the default settings loaded for both Acad 2007 and 2008...

I found that HATCHEDIT also does not work after plotting...

Thanks,

Chris
