Setting up a plotter

[neiltek]

I'm currently in the process of setting up an HP DesignJet 430 in my office. The plotter is connected to my machine and shared for use on our other Pro/E machine. I've been trying to configure it so we can plot without going through all the steps of setting paper size, offsets, etc. I've named the plotter "designjet". When I tried using it from the command line, entering:


"print /d:\\<my machine name\designjet <plot file name>.plt


it tells me "Unable to initialize device" or some such. Our network is setup has follows:


My machine, which has the plotter on it


Other guys machine


And our license server


Thanks in advance

I have solved the problem. I editedthe line forPLOTTER inpcf file to DESIGNJET. Works like a charm now
