I am using Photoshop CS2. I am plotting to an HP5500. I have noticed a lot of blank pages in the plotters bin. I printed a 36×44 image and plot came out blank. The preview showed what I expected. What could cause this?

Check that the printer driver for that device is up to date. If what is in the preview is not getting printed, then the driver is usually the culprit. (assuming the plotter pens are not dead 🙂

I’ll check the driver version. They pens are working.

I updated the drive to the current version and the same thing happened. I’m trying to print a 36×120 size sheet. It just shoots out a sheet that size without any printing at all.
