I am using 2014 and have created interior elevations from my floor plans. Some of the elevation views do not print. They look fine on screen, but do not show up on the pdf or on prints. It appears to be random because I created each elevation view similarly and did not change any property settings. I have also tried deleting the elevation view and creating a new view, but it has the same problem. Oddly enough, the tags, dimensions and crop lines will print. See my attachment for an example.
Thanks,
Jenny

Do you mean the view in the upper left corner? You should be more descriptive instead of making us guess. This business is all about communication.
A comparison view of your screen image may have helped us. If that is the view, then also post us an image of the view properties.

Are all the views hidden line (for instance)? Or does the view with problem have shading or shadows? It could be converting to raster and be related to that.

I've had a similar problem with parts of my drawing not printing. My conclusion has been an inadequate graphics card. A temporary solution has been to turn on the "Hardward Acceleration" in the options tab which solves the printing, but it's a pain in the butt because it doesn't take affect until you restart your Revit session. For the record, I'm still using Revit-2013 and sadly need a computer upgrade.... but that's another story. I've attached a pdf showing directions to the Hardware Acceleration if your unsure of the location. Maybe this will work for you. Good luck! Dano3d

Thanks for the responses. The attachments below show a screen shot of the example view as well as the graphic display options. All of the views are hidden line and I am printing with vector processing in grayscale.
I tried turning off the hardware acceleration, but to no effect.
Any other ideas?

No graphic display options were included.
Your original post said "...Some of the elevation views do not print...". Did you mean there are other instances of this? Was this random? Did it change? If there are other instances, did you compare the view properties for the affected views? Pay attention to view templates and apply a different template if possible.
I have see corrupted views on sheets and I had to delete th view and create a new one. Create it first and copy paste same place all annotations before deleting the old one.

I agree with WWHub. Another thing to try is put the problem view on a sheet alone in a different position to test that it may be a printing issue and NOT a Revit issue. Sometimes you need to think like Sherlock Holmes to solve "Revit Crimes". Dano3d

Thanks for the help. It was 2 views that I was having trouble with. I deleted the view (one shown in the attachments) and redrew the elevation. That seemed to do the trick although I still do not understand why this wasn't printing. The other view was not printing the tile pattern, but I realized that I inadvertently had 2 walls on top of each other.
