    Autodesk Mechanical not printing on HP Designjet 500 24

    Hello,

     

    I have a problem with print from Autodesk Mechanical on a HP Designjet 500 24.

    The system is a Windows 7 Professional 64bit.

    When I select the printer, the printer returns to "none".

     

    I have tried several drivers, the HP Designjet 500 plus 24 or HP DesignJet 500 24+HPGL2 card.

    I can select the HP DesignJet 500 24+HPGL2 card, but since that driver is incorrect for my printer, it doesn't print.

     

    I have found this same problem for a HP Designjet T610.

    Here is says to use a driver version from 10 feb 2010 or later. But there isn't any driver around or after this date for the HP Designjet 500.

     

    Other program's can print just fine through the original HP Designjet 500 24 driver.

     

    Can anybody help me out? What can I do more to make this work?

     

    Thank you in advance for any comments,

    Jeroen.

    We have the same problem but with a different plotter.  We have not figured out how to fix this.

    Not sure your post is seeking help since it has no details: are you simply making a statement?
