DesignJet 1050c Paper too small

Hi

The problem is that when we plot to our designjet a message appears "Paper
too small press enter to continue"

The paper is way big enough

I have changed the paper size settings in AutoCAD and the printable area but
then I get the message in AutoCAD: "The plotter does not support the paper
size 592.98 x 418.65 mm, printable area 586.00 x 412.00 mm. Confirm the new
paper size before plotting".

This is really annoying...

I don't understand how AutoCAD calculates the printable area and margins,
I've changed the settings but the paper size then changes to a completely
different size to what is typed in...It doesn't seem to make sense.

Thanks

NickC

 

Assuming you are using single sheet. You have a "trailing edge" min. and a
"leading edge" min. and two equal "side margin" minimums. Look up these
dimensions in your manual. I could look them up, but then I don't have your
problem.
