Re: Printing problem
David,
You cannot print the grid from within the program, but there is a workaround: 1 - Create a new layer (Plan --> Add level) and make sure it is the lowest layer (if that is what you need) 2 - Draw long "lines" by placing very long, thin boxes; make sure to place the boxes correctly by editing their coordinates.
To print the plan: 1 - File --> Page setup --> Scale 1:120 2 - Set the page size 3 - Print the plan to your printer (File --> Print), or as a PDF (File --> Print to PDF)

I had the same question / problem today and I solved it by creating a grid in a vector drawing program (I used the free software Inkscape) and exporting that grid as a bitmap. Then I imported this bitmap into Sweet Home 3D and scaled it properly so that the grid line distance became exactly 100 cm. Looks good in the printout.
