In the Advanced Options dialog box, Confirm that all of the settings for the plotter – including page size, print

quality, and scaling, are all accurately set.

If the page size is still incorrect, try creating a custom page size by selecting custom in the page sizes dialog box

and setting the custom size information in the Definition dialog box.

Be sure to edit the Page Size Dimensions, Units, Paper Feed Direction (Short or Long edge first), and the Offsets

Relative to the paper feed direction (if applicable). After updating the custom settings, click ‘OK’ several times till

you are back to the first dialog box for the print settings. In the print settings dialog, select Setup in the Settings.

In the Print Setup, select the custom paper size, Determine the Paper placement, select the Zoom to 100% (not

scaled to fit), set your options for what prints, determine the page orientation and then finally, select ‘Save As’ and

name this print setup so it is saved in the project and can be selected again in the future.
