I have an HP 500. I do not have the HP/GL2 card. I am printing from
both Autocad Electrical 2004 and Autocad (Vanilla) 2005. When I have
the plot style table set to monochrome.stb in either application, I am
getting color output. (Another quick thought, isn't the file extension
in 2004 for the plot style table supposed to .ctb?) On the Acad E 2004
plots, the prints is very light relative to what it should be. I had
been generating my drawing in Acad E and printing in 2005 successfully
(to get away from the light printing), but now everything has gone to color.

I need help quick!!

Sincerely,

Chris Breidenbaugh

STB and CTB are available, the first you actually assign manually, the
second relies on color of entities.

CONVERTPSTYLES command is what you want to look up in HELP to fix your
problem.
