Printing to Aficio 650 from AutoCad

GrahamDocusultant Elite P4P'er

Anyone had this issue printing from one of our systems to AutoCad? They want to set it up as a plotter to print out of AutoCad but I can not find any Ricoh plotter files out there for our copiers to print. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Graham,
I believe that they would not be able to print directly from autocad unless they converted the files to a .plt extension.
I am not sure if the postscript option will allow you to print direct without the file conversion.
I have autocad lite 2000 on my laptop and could send you a few .plt files.
All you have to do to convert the files to that format is check the plot to file box in autocad when you are printing. It will create a PLT file instead of a DWG file and you should be able to do windows printing.
Also, very important in that what version of Autocad are they using?
