17834 2001-08-30 06:17:00 Hi,

I'm a surveyor who brings a lot of work home. As such, i quite often complete plans on my home computer.

These plans are usually produced in AutoCAD. In autoCAD, line weights (thicknesses)are specified by colour.

When plotting on a plotter at work there is no problem, but on my Epson Colour 480, instead of treating each colour as a different line weight, it treats them simply as different coloured lines of equal weight. This is fine as I only use these printouts for scribbling purposes, except light colours don't show up very well.

My question is, can you set up the epson to print in black and white, instead of grayscale. That way, all lines will show up the same. Cheers

PS sorry for the lenght of the question.

I have a Colour 640, and it on the main tab, under the advanced button.
