I have a DesignJet 2500 CP plotter that has a 4.3 gig hard
disk. I have used photo shop 6.0 to open a 12 MB jpeg file, when I
sent this file to the plotter, I chose the paper siZE TO BE 36"x96",
it generates a image file as large as 2.3G in the print server spool
directory, then the image file is spool to the plotter, it took
several hours, but I always get an out of disk space error message on
the
plotter. Can anyone explain to me what is going on with that big of a
hard drive and no room? Do I need to set something
different on my computer or the plotter? Thank you.
