Only partial drawing is plotted (plotter out of memory).

If you experience "Out of memory" problems when plotting a large drawing on your HP DesignJet plotter, either add RAM to your plotter or set the processing option.

In the Windows Start menu go to Settings > Printers. Right-click the plotter and select Properties. Set the driver to Process Document In Computer (most often in the Advanced tab). Your plot will be now processed on your computer, not in the plotter memory.
