Printing a drawing

The Print dialog box is organized by tabs into two functional areas: scaling and viewing, and advanced printing options. For help defining print settings before you print, see Customizing print options.

To print a drawing

1. If necessary, click the desired Layout tab or the Model tab.
2. Do one of the following:
• Choose File > Print.
