Hello,
 
I am working with AutoCAD 2007 and am using the Xerox WorkCentre 5675 PS to print to. I am having trouble with my pages lining up and stapling. I talked to our tech guy for the printer and he said that AutoCAD is sending each layout as a seperate job which is causing the pages to print offset. 
 
So, my question is, is there a way to have AutoCad print or publish as 1 job so there is no offset? Right now, as a work around we are having to convert to pdf then print and it works fine with no offset and it staples.
 
Thanks,
 
ZAC

If I understand your issue,
 
Did you have any 'WIPEOUT' features in your drawing?
If so, try to make the wipeout lines 'unprintable' by disable or clicking the plot options icon in Layer Manager.

I've done publish and AutoCad still sends to the printer as seperate jobs wich causes our printer to print the sheets offseted, so then i have to go in and stack em' even and then staple. One of the reasons we got this printer was so we could just send to the printer and it would do all that for ya :)
I dont think the wipeout feature is what im looking for...
And there is no page manager, there is page setup manager, plotter manager, & plot style manager and i have messed and poked around in all of them b 4 i posted here and also have done research b 4 posting here.
would appreciate any help,
ZAC

have you tryed just clicking the printer on the tool bar and then select the printer that you want, then select properties and then select what options that you want.

Yes Ive gone there and changed the settings there and it still prints the pages with an offset because AutoCAD is sending to the printer as seperate jobs which is why the printer is automatically offseting it which is what our printer tech guy said... Kinda wierd... I guess ill just keep making as pdf and then printing, but the only problem with that is if there are changes to the plans then I have to go in modify then remake pdfs for the plans...
Thanks anyways for the help
