Set Up a Page for Plotting
Before plotting a drawing, you must determine the paper size and how the
drawing will be positioned on the paper.
You also can easily plot a drawing using default settings.
To choose a plot device
1 From the File menu, choose Plot.
2 In the Plot dialog box, Plot Device tab, under Plotter Configuration, select
a plotter in the Name box.
If you have already selected a paper size and it is not supported by the
plotter you have chosen, AutoCAD warns you that a paper size supported
by the plotter will be used. Choose OK if the warning appears.
3 Once you have selected a plotter, you can continue to choose a paper size,
or if the paper size is correct, choose OK to plot the drawing.

Set Paper Size
If you plot from a layout, you have already specified a paper size in the Page
Setup dialog box. However, if you plot from the Model tab, you need to spec-
ify a paper size when you plot. On the Plot Settings tab of the Plot dialog box,
select the paper size that you want to use. The list of paper sizes depends on
the printer or plotter that you have selected on the Plot Device tab of either
dialog box. The list of available plotters includes all those that are currently
configured for use with Windows and those for which you have installed
nonsystem drivers.
