    I am trying to print on 11x17 paper using AutoDesk and also Autocad.
    This worked fine until a few days ago. Now the process gets stuck when
    sending to the printer. The printer does a lot of small movments and
    then spits the paper out with nothing printed. I reinstalled the latest
    drivers from HP. Printing is fine in other applications. If anyone else
    has had this kind of a problem and resolved I would really like to hear
    about it.

    I was going to mention shutting everything down as well but since it's
    working with other applications, that's probably not the answer.
    Sometimes HP drivers are not worth updating. I have run across several
    occasions when updating drivers for HP plotters / printers does more
    harm than good. I suggest unloading your current drivers and reloading
    the drivers that came with the printer. I'm using an HP deskjet 9300
    which replaced a 1220c. (there really the same printer and their
    drivers are interchangeable) I actually used the old 1220c drivers for
    the 9300 for quite some time. I'm currently using driver version 64.33
