Add a Plotter

[ANDY0871]

Im running Mep 2009. Im trying to get to the add a plotter wizard. The clip I watched that i'm trying to follow says to go to the tools pulldown. Which I dont have. I searched through my other pulldowns and in my Ribbon and I couldnt find it anywhere. Does anyone know another way to get to it?

File > Plotter Manager. Then double click the Add-A-Plotter Wizard Icon.

 

Or you can simply type PLOTTERMANAGER at the command line to get to the same location.

it brought me to a network directory where we have all our plot configs set up. but thee isnt one for add a plotter. will i get the same results if i go to my local drive and to go add a wizard there? i want sure if this made a difference. It probably doesnt?

Try going into Printers & Faxes and select "add a printer". This will bring up the wizard. Hope this helps.

Nope. That doesnt work. It doesnt do the same thing as the add a plotter wizard in autocad.....Im trying to do what i saw here http://video.cadalyst.com/? its the second set of clips that talks about creating a raster images from autocad....
