Plotter Problem, canon ipf750

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hey guys i'm not sure that this is the right place to ask the question but

I recently bought a canon ipf750 plotter and installed the drivers . I tried to plot some things from archicad but when i hit plot it does only show me the drivers that are built in with archicad that they have only a few options. I can't figure out how to get canon driver windows to show up.

Sorry for my english and please I need an answer fast.
Thanks

Hey Rwmanos,

Try File - Print (CTRL+P) instead of File - Plot.

Hope that helps,

By the way, the drivers you installed are most probably printer drivers, not Graphisoft plotter drivers.
