NX Viewer Printing
NX Viewer Printing
(OP)
Looking for some help setting up printing with NX10 Viewer. The viewer does not have a plot command, only print. I am struggling to find a way to print 1:1 scale, properly centered on the sheet. Once I find a setup that works (tricking the printer with an oversized page size), I try a different printer and I have to start over. The viewer needs to work with a variety of printers and plotters depending on where in the building various users are working. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

The plotting function in full blown NX works differently in that it creates a CGM first then sends that to the printer/plotter.
I think you either have to consider a base drafting or design bundle to get access to plot functionality or speak with your Siemens rep about finding a solution that will work for you.
I don't think that's an unreasonable request to be able to print plots at 1:1 from NX Viewer.

I had a look, the NX Viewer doesn't have neither the pdf nor the Plot...
If your salesrep has promised you this option in the Viewer, -it's time to start negotiating...
