The Add-A-Plotter Wizard is a shortcut file in the plotter list... it's a shortcut to this file...
C:\Program Files\Autodesk Building Systems 2007\addplwiz.exe

Most printers and plotters require that you load the software first.

depending on your OS, i'd make sure that the plotter/drivers have been installed... I'm not sure you can install a plotter thru CAD... then again...
