Hi @thuanamd, Please zoom into a single node and use the camera icon in the top right corner to capture your screenshot because your picture isn’t readable. What is the mistake that you encounter ? ---

Thanks for viewing . I resend screenshot for zooming into single group . I use printer name is PDFCreator because it help me to merge all PDF from sheet after being finished . I edit Python Script of Export CAD to add OUT = 0 first and OUT =1 when done for RunIT of Print PDF ( replace Passthrought ) . I changed DWG export options Color to TrueColors to avoid making files \*.pcd after export DWG . But I have trouble in Dynamo 2.0.1 . Why is it making duplicate output of Print Setting and Print Range after saving Dynamo file ? Please help me about that . ![dy-1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/c/1c92737c6223fdb58904859cd0eb4477f084703e.JPG) ![dy-2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/8/1/81c6839a1e00f712e1fe5f99b3b6fcd930c7d5a0.JPG) ![dy-3](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/8/b/8ba30b15e75b7f17aada40ebef07eb7e426ef9cd.JPG) ---

This problem has already been encountered earlier: > [@Archi-lab Print Settings and Print Range 2 Outputs after saving an re opening](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/archi-lab-print-settings-and-print-range-2-outputs-after-saving-an-re-opening/23440): > > Hi I am using Revit 2017 Dynamo core 2.0.1.5055 and Dynamo Revit 2.0.1.5065. The nodes “Print Settings” and “Print Range” are having 2 Outputs after saving and reopening the script. Before: After: Anyone know how to get Print Range and Print Setting by Python or how the fix this? Check that the package archilab is up to date. ---
