Ive written a program in Inventor that finds all the drawings associated with a part/assembly.
it is supposed to find and open the selected drawings invisibly but for some reason the print manager wont work unless the drawing is opened and the drawing is active. In order to make the program work I have to open each drawing then close them. every time the user must input for save changes, and checking out (which is not necessary and takes forever).
Is there a way I can print without opening the drawing and making it active?

Set doc = ThisApplication.Documents.Open(Archive, False)
