How to print to scale?

We have a 36" plotter that we use to make full size prints of jobs. I would like to know how to use the plotter with Fusion to create these full size prints. I've fooled around with the drawing workbench, but I can't even figure out how to tell it to use the correct paper size, much less get it to print to scale. This is a necessary function for any cad program, so I'm sure Fusion has it, and I'm just missing something.

As always, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Art

Any resolution as of May 2023? I create a “C” size drawing in Fusion 360, set the scale to 1:1 and insert my design. I save it to PDF file icon on the Fusion 360 menu then I send the PDF file to Kinkos FedEx (a local printing service vendor). They print the PDF and it is about 4.4% too large. Can this be corrected?
