    Excuse me if this has been asked before.
    Using Autocad 2004, when I go to plot I have
    multiple listings of the same plotter. Does
    anyone know how this happens. There is only one
    instance of this plotter in Windows control panel.
    Using Windows XP Professional. Thanks.

    Hi Mike,

    I have seen this before. Is one instance of the plotter shown up with just
    the name (HP500) and the second instance a network style address
    (\SERVER\HP500). If so the first is the Plotter configuration file autocad
    has generated automatically for the plotters/printers it has found and the
    second is the listing of the Windows Printers - its annoying but it really
    doesnt matter IMHO.

    Hope this Helps - Andrew.
