Can't Plot in Model Space

    We are running LDT2005. Our plotter is an HP DesignJet 1050C Plus. I can plot Paper Space Layout Tabs without any troubles at all. When I try and plot from the Model Tab, AutoCAD acts as if it plots fine (status bars and everything indicate that the plot completes successfully) but absolutely nothing happens at the plotter.
    Help please.

    Not being able to plot from model space with a HP 1050 or a 500 is a known
    issue in Land 2005, it actually is coming from Map 3D it will be fixed in
    the land service pack when it comes out. The Map 3D service pack for Map 3D
    users has fixed the issue on there end. Just some FYI.

    A fix till the service pack out is this. Right click on your system printer
    icon go to printing preferences then the advanced tab and set the document
    processing option to Avoid out of memory. This will process the document on
    the computer not the plotter you shouldn't notice a performace issue. Do
    this on the local machine if this doesn't fix your problem do it both on the
    local machine and server level. If you are not using a system printer and
    everything is going TCP/IP through a .pc3 file then you must modify it in
    the .pc3 file.

    Hope this helps!
