    Angry Trouble setting up pc3 files to be used by network users

    I have setup PC3 files in a network folder that I am using in specific page setups for all of our projects. All of our users are able to use the page setups and everything seems to work fine until to plot is sent. The plot seems to leave ADT ok and go to the print spooler but after a couple of seconds a print failure comes up. Has anyone run into something like this that might be able tell me what to look for?

    We ran into this if we used a pc3 file setup from a W2K machine on a WXP machine. We needed to make separate pc3 files for each operating system. (AutoCAD 2002)

    Hi

    For starters take a look at the following Technical Document -

    ID: TS18424 - Verify serial communications from Microsoft® Windows®

    +

    What is the exact message you receive when it fails?

    Have a good one, Mike
