    Plotting from AutoCAD 2005 to a HP DesignJet 650c on file. Plotter is set for 16.7 million shades of grey at 600dpi. The plot should print 30X60 but cuts short at 48inches. At 300dpi the plot is complete. The problem does not appear to happen when plotting from 2004 or 2006.

    Can a HP 650c actually plot 600 dpi? It has been a long time since I used
    one but I thought it was limited to 300 dpi. It sounds like the plot being
    generated from ACAD 2005 is to big for the plotter to handle. Have you tried
    setting it to process on the computer instead of the plotter via the print
    driver?
