I have an HP750c E size plotter with Postscript option with margins set to minimal on both sides and the setting on plotter "print inked area". The plotter uses roll paper. The problem is when I plot full size (scale 1/1) and include the time stamp feature - the edge (same side as time stamp) of my drawing format doesn't print. I have to use "variable" and increase the numbers which rotates my d and e size prints and still cuts of an edge of my drawing format off. Question. The distance from edge of paper (ex. 24x36) to any entity of the format should that be ????. Do I have to make my drawing formats (on the time stamp side) smaller? HELP!
A size 8-1/2x11
B size 11x17
C size 17x22
D size 22x34
E size 34x44
 
I've had the same problem hwen plotting to the HP1050C. What I've found is to check "Full Plot" instead of "Based on Zoom" and use "Oversized E".
It stills clips a bit of the plot, but it may be a little better then what you're getting now.
Hopefully this will help you.
