AutoCad 2000 - Changing Pin Settings?? (for printing)

AutoCad 2000 - Changing Pin Settings?? (for printing)

AutoCad 2000 - Changing Pin Settings?? (for printing)

(OP)
I know how to do it in Cad 14, but can't figure it out in 2000.  My prints are faded in some areas depending on the layer and I don't want to go thru and change the layers just to print, and some blocks would have to be exploded which won't work.

If not pin settings, maybe a monochrome setting??

Anybody??

Thanks,
Hank

You're getting grey-scale representations of color.  Use monchrome or set all pens to black

I know...how do I do that in 2000??

RE: AutoCad 2000 - Changing Pin Settings?? (for printing)

In your plot dialog there is a drop down list for plot style tables. From this list select monochrome.

This will change all pen colors to black.
