When plotting an autocad drawing with multiple layers of various colors and pen widths, What settings need to be changed to get the colors to print in black, not shades of grey? Yellows and other light colors are coming out to faint to read, same in monochrome.

We've already changed the HPGL colors and Calcomp colors to 100% grey and selected black and white in the HPGL plotter defaults and these changes have not worked.

I was curious what "2 shades of grey" in the vector graphic settings or shutting off dithering would do? Has anyone come across this problem and know a fix?

Thanks

Well, Since I'm alone on this one I'll answer my own question in case anyone else does come across this.

Apparently the 2 shades in vector graphics under the plotter settings is the fix. For the life of me couldn't figure out what the "black and white" button does because it didn't change a thing? Tip my hat to Ratio for making things easy!
