Printing models
By default, a printer page outline appears on the main
display bounding the area that will fit on the paper size selected for
the default printer. Toggle whether the printer page outline appears
using the Display Parameters (
) > Global dialog box.
Because most printers don't print right to the edge of the page, an additional three-quarters of an inch of image inside the print margin won't be printed. If you change the paper size using the File > Print Setup dialog box, the page outline in the main display changes too.
If your model exceeds the printer page outline, those portions of the model won't print. Ensure you select a page size large enough to include your entire model in the File > Print Setup dialog box.
To print models:
- Verify how the current page will appear when printed by selecting File
> Print Preview.
The Print Preview dialog box opens. - From the File menu, select Print (
), or click Print in the Print Preview dialog box above.
The Print dialog box opens. - Select the desired print options then click OK.
