    What size paper are you printing to? This print wouldn't happen to be going to a machine with multiple trays?

    In the Plot dialog box sometimes one will find a paper size, like A3, listed twice with the dimensions given as 297x420 and also as 420x297. Could you have selected the wrong one?

    So you change the drawing orientation in the plot dialog box and when you do a Preview does it look correct?

    Post a screen shot of your Plot dialog box.

    Can you also attach a copy of the actual DWG file? Someone here can do a "test" print using the parameters your Plot dialog box indicates and see what their results are.

    It is not correct in a Preview.

    Maybe you made a change via Custom Properties specific to your printer (see where it says Orientation)? If so, maybe it is overriding what you set in your plot dialog box.
