Not sure that understand your issue - you have some items with dashed linetypes that looks different on paper than on screen? Or just don't appear at all on paper? For latest case please verify to don't be stored in a layer that is set as No Plot.

Is there anyway of plotting a cad drawing from the model view screen so that certain linescales show? At the moment when I plot it will show hatched items without the outlines

AutoCAD's happy user equation: FILEDIA + PICKADD² + PICKFIRST = 3

basically if I plot my drawings in paper view mode the lines come out rough and not smoothe. If I plot my drawing in model view no line weights show only the hatched area of whatever objects are on the drawing, the image quality is a lot better in this mode.

Whenever I plot on paper view I get white distortion on my hatched drawing, this is with maximum image quality also.

If I plot the same image but in model view, it will be a lot clearer with better quality but without outlines/lineweight.

It may help if you will post a screen-shot of what you were talking about.

Uninstall your printer. Remove the existing drivers. Download and install the latest drivers. Reinstall your printer. Run a test but make sure you are printing the same size text at the same scale.

Thanks for reply, what is Shademode and where would I find it? Just to note when I have been plotting I have been doing Window selections, would this effect?
Thanks.

Try keeping all parameters the same as much as you possibly can otherwise it is not much of a comparison.
