| Plans Information Paper 2/2008 Using the Plotter to Print Ad hoc Prints Larger than A4 There are more and more occasions where Plans settlers are sending A4 prints or multi flap Title Plans to the plotter. This is both costly and disruptive to the Agency
Multi flap Title Plans When completing multi flap Title Plans it is often advantageous to print a copy of the Title Plan on one sheet rather than use the multi flap Title Plan which will remain in sections until Plans Finishing after Legal Settle. (See Staff Notice F272/07) In order to do this the "ad hoc" functionality on the Print Settings window must be used - remember to select the correct paper size and orientation so that the whole of the Title is included. Under no circumstances should the Title Plan option on the Print Settings window be selected. If the settler selects "Title Plan" the print will be produced as a multi flap Title Plans at A4 size as the "Title Plan" functionality overrides the paper size and orientation settings and uses the preset settings of A4 and portrait. Batch Printing When using batch print to print a Title Plan the Title Plan will be queued to your current default colour printer therefore if your default printer is the plotter the system will send the Title Plan to the plotter. Wrong print sent to Plotter? Where a settler sends either an A4 print or a multi flap Title Plan to the plotter they must go to the plotter and cancel the print request. Where the print request was a multi flap Title Plan the settler will have to remain at the plotter and cancel each page of the extract as it is sent to the plotter. If anyone has any questions on the above I can be contacted by e-mail or on Ext 3156 Elizabeth Moran
