BruceKC 1 Posted February 3 I have an older HP 800 plotter. It works fine in Windows 10, and I have autocad and it also works well with Autocad Architecture. But when I try to plot anything to it from Chief Archtiect x12, I get an error message stating that the plotter is reporting a dpi of 0, and of course it won't print anything from Chief. Am I doing something wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parkwest 148 Posted February 3 Try plot to PDF in Chief and then print from the PDF... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BruceKC 1 Posted February 3 I can do that, and I know that works, but it seems silly. Every other program I use can' plot to the HP, just not Chief. If I have to plot to pdf and then plot to the HP, it makes printing very, very slow. thanks for the tip though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is alot more detail to process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BruceKC 1 Posted February 3 Nope, I use Autocad Architecture, it's a 3D program as well, and I'm pretty sure the files are much larger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
