Can't print from my laptop

Anonymous — Sun, 14 Mar 2004 13:57:02 GMT

I've installed ArchiCAD 8.0.0 R1 on my home computer and on my laptop. The laptop is a pentium 4 with 456 mb of ram but when I run plotmaker 3.0 I can't get the page set-up to open.

I'm on a ethernet router at home and my printer is going through that. I can get page set-up to open on my home computer with no problems and I can print anything else from my laptop through the router, even when I print from archiCAD. When I try to open set-up in plotmaker it just flashes and nothing happens. When I try to print I get a message that says insufficient memory.

Help needed please as I've tried everything I know.

Can't help with the print issue ... but 8.0R1 was incredibly bug-infested, so I hope that you meant to say 8.1R1+ (with the downloadable bug fixing patch installed). If you really mean 8.0 because 8.1 hasn't been delivered to Oz yet ... then do install R3 and try again.

Sorry I can't help more though...hopefully someone with the real answer to your question will jump in.

8.1 v1 is available in oz and there is no reason not to upgrade
