Newer user learning AutoCad Light 2000. I have my drawing prepared and can see line weights and screening in the Model view. I also have line types selected but these don't show.

Now how do I get it to plot out showing these widths? I have tried the Line Weight property and the Thickness, and in my pen settings I have indicated to use object features. I'm using a HP 4050 printer and want grayscale plot. My drawing is only in black and grey. It was converted to DWG in Visual Cadd
 
Dear JGorrell;

I typically set my line plot widths in the layer dialog box. Dimensions have their own layer and lineweight, My object has its own layer and lineweight. Then I use monochrome.ctb plot style in plot dialog box. This should work fine for you too.

Regards Adrian
