"Unknown Error Code 61185"

[albertsjo]

We have a couple of our users getting this error code when trying to plot to an Oce plotter. We are using ADT 3.3, but it was occurring with ADT 2, also. I have pinned the problem to our three Win2000 machines. Has anybody had this problem? Know of any solutions? We are able to plot after waiting about 30sec after the intial error.

One thing I have done in the past is use the OCE as an HP GL/2 plotter, this way you can bypass the OCE raster plot settings. It also plots faster. Good luck and I hope this is some help.

How did you install the OCE plotter? I am pretty sure that Win2000 doesn't have the proper drivers for OCE plotters for plotting from AutoCAD, so you need to download the driver files directly from OCE.

If I remeber correctly it was a three part process, run the OCE file, go to the windows conrol panel and install the printer for Windows, and then run AutoCAD and install the printer there.

I ALSO noticed this web page for OCE plotter drivers for use with AutoCAD:

I would also point out that rebooting after a driver install or update is always helpful to ensure your changes have taken affect.
