DesignJet T520 only Printing half page...

[CAL3D07]

Started out printing some plans.....The first set printed fine... went to print the second set about an hour later... It printed only half page. It has done this before, but I'm not sure what I did to get it to print the whole page...I've tried everything!

Dear Sir 

Please do install the correct driver Hpgl2 or the pcl found on 

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-designjet-t520-printer-series/5263079   Hpgl2 driver     OR 

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-designjet-t520-printer-series/5263079

selecting your Os  ..    install and try to print if solved its very good 

other wise if still missing or lines and info your file could need too much processing 

before printing  go to printer properties   from the application you are using   go to preferences  ,then use the last tab advanced and select print job as bitmap  enable  .. et  voila

if it is solved please do mark as solved  Thank you

I have the same thing happening here with my DesignJet T120.

It has been happening since the November 2020 driver update.

So far I have only seen it with multi-page prints. eg. see photo attached of the output from two attempts to print to different A3 Landscape documents, one of 6 pages, the other of 9 pages. In both cases it printed one full page and then halfway through the second page it just stopped and spat out an incomplete page. No error messages on printer or in Windows 10. No sign of the rest of the document after page 2, the other pages never appeared. This is a pretty annoying waste of paper and ink. Having to print these docs one page at a time a manually is pretty inconvenient too 😕
