To perform a long plot

1. Plot in the normal manner. For best results, plot to extents, don't rotate the plot. Use an explicit one-to-one scale (not Scale to Fit).
2. To stop your plotter after AutoCAD has finished sending all the vectors, clear the plotter memory using the plotter Control Panel.
3. To stop a long-axis plot while AutoCAD is sending vectors to the plotter, press ESC.
4. Clear the plotter memory as indicated for the following devices:
   • DraftMaster X series. Press the Cancel button.
   • HP 7600 240D/E. Press the plotter Reset button.
   • HP 7600 250/255/355. Press the Plot Management button. Select Queuing Operations, and then select the plot and delete it from the queue.
