Use a template that has your plot info already incorporated in it.

Make a Sheet Set, such that from the next time when you are making a new drawing also, this Sheet set will help you, from the beginning

Problem is I do not always deal with new drawings. Sometimes I have to print like a hundred drawings to the directed format xxx.ctb when they were set to another format like yyy.ctb
