I have a user who is publishing from PlotMaker. He set up everything correctly -- even selecting the appropriate Xerox driver supplied by ArchiCAD. When he publishes, PlotMaker thinks for about 4 mintes, then pops up the error you see in the graphic below. Once you click the OK button, it says that it plotted correctly, but nothing comes out of the plotter.
Since he already chose the plotter when he set up the publishing set, how can it be missing? What causes this error, and how do we get around it? As usual, we are in a crunch and need to figure this one out quickly.

Wait a minute! I'm an idiot. I'm getting my problems mixed up. 
He was trying to publish directly to the printer. The error occurred at the end of the process just before PM checks off the sheet as having been successful -- even though it isn't successful because nothing is plotted.

1. Did he try clicking on Print?
2. What is the reason for Publishing instead of Printing the layout book?
You can't plot to DWG ...
