    I use ACADLT2004 with an HP450C plotter. I recently upgraded from WinNT to WinXP. Since the upgrade, PAGE SETUP does not work properly. For instance, if I set the paper size to A1 and click OK - then initiate the PLOT command, the paper size that I set in PAGE SETUP has not been retained. The paper size always return to the application paper size selected in the plotter properties dialog box. Any suggestions would be appreciated. (I have installed Service Pack 1A and latest HP driver ver 4.65)

  2. Hi Ron,
    If your "paperupdate" sysvar is set to 1, try setting it to 0. Let me know
    if this helps.
    Thanks, Kristy
