    Doubt. A printer does not start printing unless the whole job has been converted into post script for the print processor/print server. I would say someone just did not checked the generated document before printing and therefore did not noticed the missing graphic. You could pull the plug on your pc and the printer would continue the process, as long as he got a complete and valid post script.

    If you want to avoid this, always export as PDF, check PDF and print from PDF. It is the industry standard since 35 years and post script is it for… idk… 50 years? We are talking early 80’s here when Desktop Publishing go into overdrive mode. Things like that just not happen all the sudden. It is mostly a Layer 8 Problem.
