The VMESH just meshes geometry volumes, and VGEN just copies geometry volumes. I'm not sure what you mean when you say the printed volumes are created using VMESH. As far as I know, APDL does not work with facetted geometry from mesh. Try using the VMESH after the VGEN, or detach the mesh from the geometry before using VGEN:
MODMSH, DETACH
But this will created problems later when you try to set loads, supports, connections to geometry.
