When trying to PLOT a drawing, AutoCAD displays an error message: "The plotter configuration does not support the paper size of the current layout. What do you want to do?"

You are probably using a wrong print definition file .PC3 or its associated .PMP file. Either the file was copied from a different computer, from a different AutoCAD version, or it is pointing to a different printer driver. Try to re-create the PC3 file (and/or PMP).
