I am trying in the plt file to re-direct the plot to use the vellum roll in drawer #2 - is this possible?
I really don't want to use the Windows driver.
Thanks!
Paul
Have you tried setting something like:/tray="Roll #1"
Have a look at the "Device Propertyy Page" tab on the Properties Dialog for your printer to see the tray/drawer names.
from printer.plt:
; /tray; This value can be any valid tray name for that printer, e.g. Tray1, "Manual Feeder", etc.; Each printer manufacturer may have a different a list of tray names which ; are valid for their particular printer. ; ; The easiest way to determine valid tray names is to open the Print Setup dialog; from MicroStation (or other application) pick the appropriate printer/plotter ; and look in the Paper Size list box to see the valid names.; ; Note: Some manufacturers have used tray names which contain characters outside; the normal ASCII printable range. To handle this case, the user can enter a "?" ; in place of any character and MicroStation will match the actual name. ; ; If the tray name contains spaces or '/', it should be enclosed in "" or ''.; If the tray name contains " (double quote) as part of the name, the single quote ; pair should be used.;; The /tray qualifier is optional. If omitted, the Windows default setting for the ; named printer will be used.
Paul,
See your other thread, KIP plotter vellum plots, for more info.
