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 ) .

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.
