Plotting to multi roll plotters

[mmauldin]

We have an HP 1055CMPlus plotter with a multi roll feeder. We can plot to either vellum or bond, using the automatic roll selection of the plotter, when using any other program besides UG.

We set up two system queues, one defaulted to roll 1 and the other to roll 2, and seperate plot queues to address each. No matter which plot queue is selected in UG, we get plots on bond. To get vellum, we have to manually switch the rolls in the plotter.

Does anyone know how to set up UGNX2 to make paper selection an auto matic process?

Wait for NX3 with the new plotter controls. The current plot program goes back to V4, at least.

Thanks for the reply. After much experimentation, I was afraid that would be the answer.
