How to Print to the HP 1055 Plotter using:
(36" Color Plotter)
Adobe Photoshop
* Documents from this program should not be plotted on the HP 430
(24" roll) Plotter *
Step 1: Select "File" and "Print
with Preview" from the drop down menu in the top tool
bar menu. You should then see a print dialog box like the one
shown to the left (Figure A). Once here, you will see your image
in the left viewing pane. It will probably look like this, where
you are unable to view the entire image. That's ok for now. (See
Figure A)
Step 2: Select "Page Setup" and
you should get a screen that looks like Figure B below.

you will see paper size. You should select one of the Arch sizes
for your drawing.

Step 9: If
you look toward the bottom of the window, (Figure E) you will
see a rotate option. If your image
is smaller than Arch E size (36x48), select "Rotate:True". |

| Step 10: Once you have
made these changes, select "OK" until you get back
to the Print Screen (Figure F). In the top left corner you will see
the version of your document . If you do not, repeat the above steps.
If the image looks ok, hit "Print" and go to the
Pharos Swipe Station and release your job. |
