    I know someone gave me a fix for this a while ago, but I forgot what it was.
    Believe me, this time I'll print it out.....

    Our printer names have changed.
    We have dwg's with multiple layouts, some with as many as 30.
    How do we update all of the layouts in a dwg at once?
    Currently we seem to have to do every layout one at a time. PIMA.

    Thank you for your support.

    this is a little bit off the wall, but if you make a copy of the new
    printer, and change its name to be exactly like the old one called out in
    your existing Page Setups, and place it in the same location as your
    previous printer, you can fool your computer.

    As long as the Page Setup can find the named plotter it will plot ok.

    Give it a try. I am not sure it will work, but I think so.
