Printing error-only plots like 7 inches of my drawing?

[burns71]

does anyone know why when I try and plot my plotter only prints out like 7 to 10 inches then ends the print? I have an HP designjet T1120 and it worked fine with LT 2007, but since i upgraded to 2011 I cant plot anything? help!

did you by chance "migrate" during the new software installation?

Or are you sharing PC3 files from the old with the new?

Did you turn off background plotting and publishing?

I have to admit that I am pretty new to all of this so bare with me. I do belive I migrated and I'm not sure how to turn off background plotting, so I dont think I did that.

The Migration process may have introduced the problem: only good way to confirm is to remove and reinstall the newer software unfortunately (and not repeating that option).

What else might work is to plot directly to the system dirver for that device, and not the PC3 file you migrated from 2007: I assume it works fine if you print to it from other applications not from Autodesk.
