There are some considerations you should take into account when printing or plotting from Capture.
Special considerations for plotters
Plotters do not support bitmaps directly. If you are sending Capture output to a plotter, your bitmaps will not be plotted.
The Capture setup command may not give you access to all your plotter's setup options. For access to additional printer settings, use the Printers icon in the Windows Control Panel.
Many plotters do not have drivers that ship with Windows. If you do not see the plotter you are looking for in the list of available drivers, contact your plotter manufacturer and ask for a Windows driver. If your plotter will emulate HPGL, an alternative solution is to use the HPGL driver.
Plotter pen colors
The plotter driver maps your color choice to the closest available pen color as established in your plotter driver configuration. See your plotter's driver setup and documentation for more details. For access to additional printer settings, use the Printers icon in the Windows Control Panel.
To set up a printer or plotter
- From the Print dialog box, choose the Setup button to select a different printer or plotter or to change printer settings.
- If you need to set up your printer or plotter, see the documentation that accompanies the printer or plotter. For access to additional printer settings, use the Printers setting on the Start menu.
