I have been printing from Autocad2004 to my Oce9400.
I just bought a new system with WindowsVista, and reloaded ACAD, then tried
to Add Printer. I was unable to find the Oce in the list, but was able to
Add Plotter through the ACAD routine. How can I share this within a
peer-to-peer network?
I have gone to Control panel>Printers but the Oce is nowhere to be found. Am
I looking in the wrong place?
 
I'm not an AutoCAD user so I don't know what you mean by "...through the
ACAD routine". But you need to have the Vista driver for your plotter. Vista
may not have the driver by default (that's why it doesn't appear on "the
list") so you have to go get it from the plotter manufacturer. Have you
checked the plotter's web site for Vista drivers? Are you sure the OCE9400
is supported by Vista?
