Autocad printing

I am not able to print.  When I hit print, nothing happens.  Can you help?

Hi,

 

>> When I hit print, nothing happens

What happens if you use the command (type it into the commandline): _PLOT<ENTER>

Nothing happens when I type "plot" then enter. Nothing happens when I try
to print preview. It is weird because I was able to print a couple weeks
ago.


I appreciate any help you can offer.

If you add the underscore before "_PLOT" like Alfred suggested or a period before ".PLOT" do you get the dialog box? Can you use the PUBLISH command or does it also do nothing?

Nothing happens when I add the underscore or .plot. However, I am able to
print out of the publish command, which is good news.

Hi,

Hard to beleive, let's try one more step:

Start command _.PLOT using keyboard, then <ENTER>, after that press <F2> and let us know what you get then as result in the command area (screenshot may help).

So that sounds like there were changes done to your system. To check if the installation of AutoCAD has got defects you can login to your system with a new Windows account and see if AutoCAD can plot then or not, ... if it can plot then it might be a defect AutoCAD profile.
