Issue:
Users reported that, certain views/sheets take a long time to print in Autodesk Revit
Printing from Revit is slow when working with non-rectangular crop regions
Causes:
The geometry that is passed to the printer with huge data, complex views and non-rectangular crop regions can cause the print processor to generate a significantly larger amount of data, leading to slower prints.
Solution:
In order to address this behavior:
Upgrade your printer/PDF driver to the latest version.
Reduce the resolution specified in the Printer properties (600DPI or lower).
Test alternate printer drivers (if available for your printer).
Remove the non-rectangular crop regions.
Check if there is a too complex family/ hatch with too dense pattern in the model:
Go to "Visibility/Graphics Overrides" of the View's settings and hide everything/ the model categories one by one.
Check then how the performance of print works.
If the issue could be narrowed down to a specific element type or family, check if it may contain too dense hatches/ too many details or if lots of instances are placed.
Hide Planting elements or set Coarse display for printout.
