    I tried asking this about a month ago and got no response, so thought I'd give it another try.

    Background:
    HP DesignJet 800 42
    Using latest driver from HP
    OS: Win XP Pro
    42 Roll

    Why is it that using an Arch E1-30x42 (landscape) sheet size (modified so that the margins are:
    Top - .50
    Bottom - .25
    Left - 1.0
    Right - .25
    The plot will display perfectly, but print centered (even though the center plot is NOT checked). However, if I check the 'plot upside down' and replot, the same plot comes out almost perfectly. I say almost because the margins are good, but for some reason it prints the sheet at 30.5" and not a true 30".

    Why does it seem as though understanding Quantum Physics is easier than grasping how AutoCAD plots?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no hair left to pull out over this.

    Thanks.
