To check or change the plotter's settings, use the Setup Sheet. If the plotter has drawn a different plot than the one you were expecting ?! You may have pressed Replot (giving you a copy of the last plot) or may have accidentally initiated one of the plotter's internal plots. For a summary of these plots and how to print them, see page 5-2. If pen settings seem to have no effect ! You may have changed them in the Setup Sheet but forgotten to fill in the oval called "Use settings from tables below." You may expect the software-driven pen settings but the Setup Sheet is set to "Use settings from tables below". TROUBLE- 9 SHOOTING 9-11
