Gray plots in 2005

I'm using an in house plotting program that uses the -Plot comand. When I
use it in 2005 I get gray or faded out plots, however when i go through the
same steps in 2004 everything is fine.
2005 works fine when manually plotting and I have made sure that i'm using
the same PC3 file when maually and using the -plot and plot.

A big thanks for any help.

 

Hard to tell if you customize autocad what went wrong.
You state that the correct pc3 file is being used.
How about the plotter/printer driver.
Is that the correct one?
Is there some line of code that changes all to a greyscale?

Regards.

Its the same code except for the location of the PC3 file. This is what
happens when one would use the -Plot.
Comman: -plot
Drawing Scale is 1.00..plot Detailed plot configuration? [Yes/No] <No>: Yes
Enter a layout name or [?] <Model>: Model Enter an output device name or [?]
<CHECK PRINTS-b.pc3>: CHECK PRINTS-b.pc3 Enter paper size or [?] <24x36>:
36x48
Enter paper units [Inches/Millimeters] <Inches>: I Enter drawing orientation
[Portrait/Landscape] <Landscape>: Landscape Plot upside down? [Yes/No] <No>:
Yes Enter plot area [Display/Extents/Limits/View/Window] <Window>: Window
Enter
lower left corner of window <0.000000,0.000000>: 0.00000000,0.00000000 Enter
upper right corner of window <42.000000,30.000000>: 42.00000000,30.00000000
Enter plot scale (Plotted Inches=Drawing Units) or [Fit] <1:2>:
0.5=1.00000000
Enter plot offset (x,y) or

<0.00,0.00>: 0,0 Plot with plot styles?
[Yes/No] <Yes>: Yes Enter plot style table name or [?] (enter . for none)
<S:/ACAD/Support/PlotStyles2004/xes_Half.ctb>:
S:/ACAD/Support/PlotStyles2005/xes_Half.ctb Plot with lineweights? [Yes/No]
<Yes>: Yes Enter shade plot setting [As displayed/Wireframe/Hidden/Rendered]
<Wireframe>: No Write the plot to a file [Yes/No] <N>: No Save changes to
page
setup [Yes/No]? <N> No Proceed with plot [Yes/No] <Y>: Yes

this is the same thing that happens in 2004, but 2004 work and 2005 doesnt.​

 

Thank, I finally figured it out. It was an conflict with the profile path
and the hard coded path in the Plot Program.
