This error comes up when I try to plot to our network plotter hp designjet 2000CP. Does anybody have a clue?

THE FILE NAME, DIRECTORY NAME, OR VOLUME LABEL SYNTAX IS INCORRECT

 
I'm not sure, because your computer screen is not directly in front of me, but so many times the error is in syntax:

Autocad does not always like single backslashes. your plotter should read something like:

\\ntserver\HP Designjet 2000CP

If that doesn't help, perhaps we could work together to figure it out. I would need a copy of the printer installation disk to create a phantom printer on my machine. Then we could compare error messages until we solved it. If you need to go this route send an email to bfranzus@syclone.net
