Hey guys,

I am having some trouble printing out a template that I created using Alibre CAD. I have an Epson C80 printer and I can't seem to get the scale correct when I try to print it out. I have several that came out scaled to small and a few that are to large but I can't seem to find a way to print it and have it come out exactly the size that I created it. Is there some sort of work around or do I just need a different printer?

Thanks for any help,

JulianXJ

when you set up the drawing sheet make sure its set to ANSI and sheet size A (8.5 x 11) then make sure all your views are scaled in the drawing to 1:1.

When you print make sure the "scale to fit" is turned off.
