My office is a Dell/ intel R core TM i7 w/ 4gig ram on Windows 7, ACAD 1011

Home is AMD dual core(think 320Mh) w/3 gig Ram on Vista Pro. ACCAD 2012 Arch.

On both systems it seem that about 4hrs into my secsion when i try to print they both lock. On both syetems using a lazer printer. Would this proiblem be a swap file that is to small. once restarted can run amother 4hrs.

any help?

Thanks

as far a I have been told only our IT can do that, just wanted to see if that was a good option before I drag them down. It may well be printer as today when it locked I was in the print screen (but it sent print). I know all of these upgraded softwhare is great, but ther are time I just want to run version 11 or 12, did every thing i needed. But I dont get to pick what the Co. bought as this is my 3rd week.

Not ahve a problem at home just now as am print to a PDF for my

Customers ease. The more use the printers I think you are wright there is somthing about the drivers, both are Samsung diferant models. Here at work it will lock with while using Page Setup and set it ot the Samsung. Not realy that big of deal as it wates till after noon and I save (or recover) dwgs with ease, usualy have 8 or so open.

Thanks

for your help. Once i get some time I let you know what I found.

heare at work it's thur the network.

there are 2 netwoek printers, but I dont have a problem printing just the locking after it prints. The second printer is in front of the Pres. office and not to be used. Next week I will look for new drivers. For now I shut ACAD down at lunch, since the problem seems to accumulate with time.

thanks
