I am having an issue printing to scale. When I print my drawings, the scale is about 20mm out of 900mm out of scale (short) (basically just over 2% out) All of the settings are correct for plotting. This happens whether I print directly or to a pdf first. I am wondering if anyone has faced this issue and can guide me on what to do about it.
Thank you.

In the page setup manager make sure where it writes ‘what to plot’ it is set to layout and under the ‘plot scale’ its set to 1mm=1 unit
I actually figured out what was wrong. I’ve plotted before and never had this problem. This time I was sending my drawings via my email to my printer as my wireless wasn’t working. For some odd reason by sending it via email, changed the scale marginally but enough to throw the drawing completely off. Took me till 2am to work that one out!! BH all on track now. Its just interesting to note that printing via email is not so reliable/ stable.
Has anyone else experienced this?
