Some files (not all) print in a mirror image
Random files will print in a mirror image. I have checked settings in my printer and it is not there. This started happening when I updated Illustrator 2 days ago

Lines under 1pt render thick in PDF
In Illustrator, lines thinner than 1pt end up rendering a mess (thick, out of alignment) when viewed in PDF. This is fixed in the viewer by un-checking "Enhance Thin Lines", but it is unreasonable to ask every client of a designer to update that setting. Furthermore it's impossible to un-check this setting, for example on the Vistaprint website where the PDF preview of an AI file is used as the product proof.
Please fix this. There have been a million excuses on why this is not a bug but a feature, but we NEED the ability to disable it from…
8 votesThis is something that you have to address to the Acrobat team. Illustrator has nothing to do about this setting and can’t control it. There is no option for Illustrator to toggle in a generated document, it’s an app-level preference.

Media size setting of print dialog returns to default settings on changing color via swatches (or apply arrowhead via strokes)
Any operating system (happens on both Windows and Mac)
Illustrator Version 22.x or 21.xChange "media size" in print setting from "Defined by Driver" to any paper.
Finish the print dialog ("Done" click).
Select from the color book with Swatches panel, or set the arrow with the Stroke panel.
When returning to the print setting again, the media size returns to "Defined by Driver".Does not occur before Version 20 (CC 2015.5).
Possibility to occur when using settings that refer to another Illustrator file.
Problems reported in the Japan Forum.

CC 2018 Multiply Blend Mode Incorrect
CC 2018 & Mac Sierra
If you apply multiply blend mode to a path, group that and apply multiply again at the group level, you now get 2x multiply. This is wrong whether you look at this from a process ink or spot color printing.
Omg the uploaded example, I am expecting both left and right sides to be identical to each other, as in versions prior to CC2018.
We often get files from designers who will try to make a color look good on screen, and printing off a color laser printer. You could for example draw 2 overlapping…

All printer functions bugged
Printing no longer works at all in Illustrator v22.0.0. Printing to our HP DesignJet 1100PS fails to pickup color representations as well as alignment. Additionally, printing to a laser cutter driver fails to render thin lines properly. Both of these functions work if exported to PDF, then printed from outside of Illustrator

some objects wont print
I am running illustrator CC 2018 on windows 8.1
When I print certain files certain objects will not print. I have attached an example of the result. When I print black and white it works. Another person in our company with the same update and similar computer is able to print with no problem. I was printing the same file fine before I updated to the 2018 version two days ago.2 votesPlease get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

Print menu resets to default when loading Pantone colour book
Bug - Print menu resets to default when selecting a Pantone colour from any book
This in turn causes print tiling, page size etc. to disappear. Then have to return to print dialogue and set everything back to A3, page tiling etc.Been persisting with this bug for over 6 months, very annoying.
