Batch Plotting Using Plotter Overrides from the SSM sending |
|
|
Help! I've done something that is causing me problems and I can't figure out
what I did. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
For about the past two weeks, whenever I send a batch of files to our
Oce9600, it processes the entire batch as one single job at the OCE.
When I first set up the PC3 file and Overrides for 2005 it would send each
file in a job as individual jobs to the Oce. Each file name would show up
individually in the Oce Queue Manager. Now, only the first file name shows
up and it sits there active in the queue until every single sheet from the
batch has plotted. This wouldn't be a huge deal except no one else can get
a plot out until the entire batch job is finished. When I first set it up,
it would send them individually and if somebody else sent something while
the batch job was processing on your machine, it would come out in between
the sheets from the batch sent from the Sheet Set Manager.
Does anyone have any idea what I might have done to cause this?
Thanks in advance,
Chuck

FYI: THis problem is not limited to our Oce even though my initial message
may have implied that. HP Printers, Plotter, PDF converter.. everything
recieves one big job instead of multiple individuals when sending from the
Sheet Set Manager.

Anyone? So, I guess it is by design that it is spooling one large print
job instead of sending each sheet individually. This is a big problem for
us. Does anyone know if there is a way to force it to send each sheet in a
publish job separately, one at a time from the users machine to the plotter
instead of locking the plotter up until the entire job processes. Not to
mention the fact that you can't set up an override for PDFs because it puts
all of the PDFs into one single PDF.

I have the same problem with PLT files, but it did work fine two weeks ago.
The only thing that I can think of that I changed was associating a DWT file to the Sheet Set to use the overrides of the Page Setup.
Supposedly AutoCAD knows of this, but has no fix yet. |

by the way, what it is doing is creating a single, large, multi-sheet PLT file
someone else on the group has this problem |
