ateewarr Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 we have 3 new computers running on Vista, all networked through one of the machines. These all plot to an HP Designjet A1 plotter, via the one machine. The machine that is connected directly to the plotter works fine, but the other two are really slow to plot. When selecting page set up manager or plot on the drop down menus, it takes almost a minute for each to appear on the screen. It does eventually come up & you are able to plot eventually, but it takes a lot lot longer than on our old XP machines. what is wrong ??

rkmcswain Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 My guess is that AutoCAD is looking for something that it can't find. Maybe a system printer that needs to be deleted... If you can't locate what it is, here are some tips that may help: http://rkmcswain.blogspot.com/2007/07/tracking-down-why-that-application-is.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB'27T Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 We had a similar problem. The solution for us was to change our plotters to have a ".pc3" at the end of the plotter name. Hope this can help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
