Setting Up the Plotter

Task 10: Print a Test Plot

Task 10: Print a Test Plot

The sample plots explained in task 6 simply verify the operation of the plotter itself. Having connected the plotter to your computer and configured the drivers or other software for your requirements, you should now be in a position to send a test plot using one of your own files.

Among the points you should be looking out for are:

Did the Receiving light on the front panel come on?

Do you see any error message on the front-panel display?

Does the image appear in the size, orientation and position on the sheet that you expected?

Is any of the image clipped?

Are the lines of the correct width?

750C Plus

Are the colors an exact representation of what you expected?

If you find any problem at all, start by consulting chapter 9 of this manual, ªTroubleshooting.º There you will find advice on many different types of problems, from obtaining no plot at all, to tracking down the reason for a specific print-quality issue. In case you do not solve your problem with the information supplied there, chapter 9 also contains advice on where else to turn for help.
