Print to Bluebeam PDF
Problem
- PDF files cannot be created.
- The Bluebeam PDF printer does not exist in the Administrator after installation.
- Attempting to reinstall the printer notifies you that printer installation has failed.
Solution
There are two possible solutions:
Restart the Port Monitor
Restart the Port Monitor and reinstall the printer.
- Select Start and type Bluebeam Administrator.
- Right-click on Bluebeam Administrator and select Run as Administrator.
- Click the Printer tab.
- If the printer Name field is blank, click the Reinstall Printer button.
- Click the Restart button.
Once this is done, try using the Bluebeam PDF printer again.
If still not working after this point restart (not shutdown) the PC and try it again.
I've not had to go to the second option as of yet, but have it listed here just in case.
Use a Windows Administrator Account to reinstall the printer.
Your Windows account may not have permission to install a printer.
- Log out of Windows and login using the local administrator account.
- Start the Bluebeam Administrator.
- Click the Printer tab.
- Click the Reinstall Printer button.
At this point, try using the Bluebeam PDF printer again.
