That does not work. I just want my paper to print with the zones on the border. How do I get the zones to show up?

I am using AutoCAD 2019. I have a 24" Hewlett-Packard Design-Jet Plotter. I have a drawing on a D-size sheet. I pushed the plot button. Everything looks great on the print preview except there are no zones around the border of the sheet. How do I turn the zones on?

make sure that you're not using unprinted layer ( Layer dialog ) .

"Zones!"

"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

Perhaps some screen shots so we are certain we're all referring to the same thing?

Zones are the letters that are on the vertical borders of a sheet, and numbers on the horizontal borders.

Check the layer properties that the letters are assigned to.

In a sheet, do you have to draw the zone letters and numbers manually as part of the title block?

Please take a screen shot of your layout tab. Include everything in the screen shot, the entire white rectangle representing your D-size sheet and some of the gray area along the edges. Knowing what's on, in and around your D-size sheet will provide good info. Also, please take a screen shot of the Plot dialog window before hitting the Preview button. The settings for your plot job combined with the contents of your layout tab will provide a start that can be used to help you resolve your issue.
