<div><br>Hi Gary,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Usually the issue is due to the size of the image being requested by ArcGIS. MapServer by default can create no bigger than a 2500x2500 pixel image, so it is easy to exceed the size in a large ArcGIS map, or a small ArcGIS map with high resolution, and have nothing rendered.

<div>Try zooming in to a small area to see if it makes a difference.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Also try changing your print settings ... it seems that the resolution in your print settings will affect it, a 600dpi print resolution will request more than mapserver can send and only cover about 4inches of paper. ... This got me for a long time, i was able to see the WMS layers, but not print them.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>ArcGIS isn't smart enough to request multiple tiles when it hits this problem, and ESRI has quietly buried the problem, last I checked I could find nothing about it on their support / forum pages.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>On one occasion I went through the pain of using the temp images from my mapserver website, importing them one by one to ArcGIS to get around the problem.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,<br>Ken Lord</div>
