Hi: I am having a problem printing a dimension drawing, I can print a dimension drawing but only the dimension lines print, no dimensions. I don’t know if it is something I did or not. I have tried to adjust settings to correct but am finding nothing. If I can’t get help with a resolve I would like to reset the default settings if someone could help me with that. ---

Share the SKP file so we have some hope of helping. ---

OK, I got your file. It was the SKB file not SKP but I was able to get it opened and I printed it. The dimensions showed up for me. this leads me to think this has to do with the graphics processor in your computer which it must have although your profile says there isn’t one. In SketchUp go to Window\>Preferences\>OpenGL and untick the box for Use Hardware Acceleration. Just for good measure, quit SketchUp after that and reopen it. Try to print again and see if you get the dimensions. ---

Excellent! It may be that there’s an update for the drivers for your graphics processor. You should check to see. ---

Or could it be (guessing from how you filled in “none” for graphics card in your profile) that you have Intel Integrated Graphics? Many variations of IIG are known to have insufficient OpenGL support to run SketchUp succesfully. ---
