Differences in Plotting between work stations

[Darren Allen]

What would cause a difference in plotting the same dwg. when both workstations are using the same plot style file and have the same ACAD version with the same printer driver? One prints like monochrome while the other prints like gray scale. Anyone else have this and what did you do to correct it? Thanks

You can modify anything in AutoCAD, I've got a coworker who uses acad.ctb modified to suit his needs. Drives me nuts! Check if the date and time match on those plot style files.

Thanks for the idea, we already compared files and they were the same. Although reloading a third ctb file corrected the issue. Chalk it up to the Gremlins.

Better yet, keep your plot files on the server and point every machine at that location. In my office, only I can add/delete/modify plot styles. This solved sooo many plotting issues 10 years ago when I did that!
