PLOT HELP

(OP)
Hi We have been using 2002 on the same computers and printers for the past year.  All of a sudden we are trying to plot to a HP 1220 and CAD keeps on freezing when we try to execute the plot command.  Is this a bug? Do we need to reinstall Plotters? Is AutoDesk sabotaging us?

Misspia78,

Got www.hewlettpackard.com and download the driver for the HP1220 if you haven't already done so.  AutoCAD will crash sometimes because of the wrong printer driver.

RE: PLOT HELP

One question:  Did you change the default printer to the HP 1220?  Maybe it it freezing because the software is looking for the old printer.  

Hope this helps

John
