Tsuneo: You can use the PRINT command to send plot files, but only if you rebuild your plotter cable. The cable configuration illustrated in the AutoCAD Installation and Performance Guide (I&PG) only works if you use XON/XOFF. There are also a number of plot spooling programs that do what you want to do, without having to change cabling. My company sells one of the better known programs, PLUMP-Rx. The ACAD forum would be a more appropriate place for AutoCAD-specific questions in the future. And I'd be glad to answer any specific questions you might have about plot spooling. David
