    Hi All,
    I have a problem with solid yellow fill plotting with a green scatter tint. The plotter test page plots yellow solid fine & the plotter is set to software pallette.
    Autocad 2002, latest HP drivers
    any ideas appreciated

  2. Are you "screening" the solid fill, if so pick a lighter shade of yellow and
    don't screen.

    Thanks for the reply Brent,
    Screening is 100% on all colours.
    The yellow fill blocks on a plot of the colour wheel have a base colour of yellow but with a scatter of fine green dots over.

    Its likely this has nothing to do with your situation, but anything is worth
    a shot. We had problems with black and white
    photo backgrounds coming out greenish. I recall changing the settings for
    halftoning fixed this.
    (Plotter Properties Dialog->Options tab->Color Control->Halftoning)

    Thanks Terry,
    No real difference trying the various halftone choices, which combination of the settings do you use ?

    Solved - the colour control > no colour correction button needs to be enabled.
    thanks all
