In MicroStation V8i, I want to use the Bentley Driver HPGL2.PLTCFG. When it creates the plot ready file I would also like for MicroStationto immediately send the plot directly to my plotter and keep the plotready file.See Also: 69480
Attached to this solution is a MODIFIED_HPGL2.PLTCG and .JPG file.The .JPG file shows changes made to the "Default Printer File Name"property. The output file name is created in the directory where thedesign file resides and named using the base name of the design file. It also includes the .hpgl extension.The other change was made in the "Programs" tab. I added a new "ProgramCommand" which executes a "copy" command, using the MicroStationvariable (MS_PLTOUT) to identify the plot ready file and then added theUNC path to the device. Please modify the UNC path accordingly to matchthe name of your printer.
