In the Publish dialog be sure also to check the following:
 
1.  Publish to: DWFx or DWF.  If you set this to "Plotter named in page setup" you'll likely get single sheets;
2.  Publish Options should include:  File type: Multi-sheet file
 
Publish is intended to create a DWF(x) or PDF file... not automatically print a number of sheets to a plotter.  But once you create a multi-sheet file with Publish you can then batch them to the output device.
 
Dave.
