David,

I have a designjet 500 and have gone to windows 10 and have had no problems.

 

Had this printer cleaned and a new cable installed last winter and asked the guy then about win 10 and he said then it would be OK but that hp is going to suspend support of this model soon.Ordered another cable at that time to be sure I could make as much out of this machine as possible. The guy told me the 500 has been just to good a machine.

 

Have a great week end coming up,Ken

 

 

Ken, 

 

What driver are you using with your DJ 500 and Wind. 10.  I can not print from Chief at all but can print from .pdf.  Adobe can do it but not Chief.   Any other idea's someone has would be great.   Chief just gives me a "Low DPI 0"  error and does not work.  Support says they can do anything for me, even thou I have no problem with other programs..... 

 

thanks,

Yes. Joe you got it.  I was able to go into dimension defaults and auto dimensions (locate objects).  I think that is going to work.  I knew there had to be a way. 

thanks

So I have always sized  my windows to the rough opening sizes and then just ordered them a little smaller.  ie  3'x5' window would be framed 3'x5' and my supplier orders a 3'x5' RO (rough opening) thus when it arrives, it comes 1/2" smaller.  35 1/2"x59 1/2".   That is all fine, but that does not work for making the window schedule look right.  All that to be said:  Is there a way to have your dimensions go to the RO size instead of the window?.  I want my dimensions to be spot on for the framer not to where I exactly want the window.  Probably something small that I have been missing all these years, but I have not found it yet.  

THANKS

ANDREW
