Overprint Setting & colour settings
Issue one
overprint cant be applied to groups, individual objects within that group remain unset to overprint, even tho the tick box claims its overprinting, it is not - this is misleading & downright dangerousfurther more the color issue shown in the video , your objects should not do that , it again expands the risk for error , basically all the print sensitive setting in AI latest version have stopped functioning logically if you ask me & really up the risk for errors in print, never mind that going through all objects individually is tedious & unnecessary, prolongs…

Print settings not saving with document
In the old versions of Illustrator, the print settings, including the lpi/resolution settings, would be saved with the document. For several versions now, however, the lpi/resolution settings are not being saved and just get changed to the default settings every time I go to print.

Unexplained distortion on output
Mac Pro (Late 2013) OS Catalina 10.15.7.
the last two days on multiple items and workstations we have had unexplained distortion on files processed. Usual operation of drop postscript file into hot folder for output. Expected solid box with length of 67.9375. Actual solid box has length of 67.4375. This happened with several different items. Only work around we have that has actually worked is to put the file on a new document and color everything black. We can't do that on all our files. Please help1 vote -

Mac OS 10.15.6
Illustrator 24.2.3
I used to be able to print from Illustrator using my Epson L3150 printer.
It no longer prints. I used Default printing preset of Illustrator, then used default copy, then used custom. I checked and unchecked settings in advanced. All with the same result.
I tested this even on old files which I was able to print last Aug 2020. Can't print.
I opened the illustrator file in PDF and it was able to print.I would appreciate it if you can help solve this bug in Illustrator.

illustrator does not show my printer automatically
I have been using illustrator more than 3 years. After the last update, Illustrator does not show me the default printer in the computer when I command "print". I tries to save the file as PostScript file. I completely deleted the illustrator and all the adobe files and re-installed them back, but it didn't get fixed. I have several illustrator in several computers, and only one of them has this problem. Is there any solution for that?

Printer Preference Issue
My printer preference screen: the very first tab is very small, possibly in half an inch font size. Some tabs are fine, but some of the options are cut in size. For instance in original size the drop down gives you a list of paper sizes well I can only see half of 8 1/2 x 11. So basically, the font size of the drop down options are about 1/2 inch in size. I have all the Adobe products, but it's only happening in the Illustrator. Sorry, hard to explain.

Cannot print A3 at 100%
From my Mac running 10.15.4, A3 will not print correctly to my Epson WF 7720. No scaling is applied - it's at 100% both in the driver dialog and Illustrator itself - but the prints are coming out at 97.2% of what they should be.
8.5 x 11 prints work fine, and the same document prints correctly at A3 from within Inkscape.

Part of text disappears when printing upside-down
I am printing a piece of art with text. When rotating the document upside down in the print dialogue window, the printed version lacks letters. It looks like only the first letter gets printed. This is not a printer issue either, tested printing from PDF and it worked fine.
See attached for the example. The right half is how it should be, left half is what comes out - small "B" is missing.1 vote -
CD Printing problem (media selection)
Illustrator 24.0 doesn't set media type properly. On Epson L805 printer selecting CD/DVD media prints on A4 plain paper instead. This bug appears recently. Other apps, like Affinity Designer prints from the same .ai file without any problems on choosed CD/DVD.
BTW: Great idea how not to offer support: let's ask users to vote if bug should be fixed or not...

network printer HP 8730 Pro
With the newest version of Illustrator (is it 24) there comes a lot of trouble for users with HP printer - maybe all printer which are connecting over the local network. The issue is that Illustrator can´t open any ai file nore make a new files while the default printer is a network printer. Here it is the HP 8730 Pro. With the help of the support desk there is a workaround to fix this issue. You have to set your default printer to Adobe pdf. But this is not a real solution, it´s only a temporarely workaround. So hopefully…

Wrong encoding of separation names when exporting to PDF/X-4 (should be UTF-8)
When exporting to PDF/X-4 from Illustrator, the separation names are not encoded in UTF-8 (which is requested by the PDF/X-4 standard) but using the OS encoding (MacRoman on Mac - ISO-8859-1 on Windows).
This makes the PDF/X-4 preflight to fail.
