AutoCAD 2000i, 2002 and 2004
Note:
AutoCAD version 2000 is not compatible with ULS laser systems. You must upgrade to version 2000i or
higher. Also, we recommend installing ULS printer driver version 5.24.38 or higher.
Make sure the ULS Printer driver is installed prior to setting up AutoCAD. 1.
If AutoCAD is already installed and you are simply upgrading ULS printer drivers: 2.
Close all open programs. t
In Windows, Click Start>Printers & Faxes.
t
Delete ALL ULS drivers from the Printers (Printers and Faxes) folder. t
With the Printers and Faxes folder still open, click File>Server Properties>Drivers and remove ALL ULS
t
printer drivers from the list. Close Printers & Faxes.
Using Windows Explorer, search for all files and folders with a .pc3 extension, then delete all ULS Printer
t
pc3 files (i.e. VLS360.pc3).
Next, search for files with a .pmp extension and delete all ULS Printer .pmp files (i.e. VLS360.pmp).
t
Reboot the PC.
t
Start AutoCAD and open a new drawing. 3.
Click File>Plotter Manager and double-click Add a Plotter Wizard. If the Autodesk Hardcopy System window 4.

Click Next. Select System Printer and then click Next. 5.
Select the appropriate ULS Printer Driver and then click Next. 6.
DO NOT click the Import file button, simply click Next. 7.
You may edit the plotter name, if desired, and then click Next. 8.
Click on Modify Standard Paper Sizes (Printable Area) in the Device and Document Settings Tab window, 9.

Finish. Click OK to exit the Plotter Configuration Editor window and then click Finish.
Click File>Page Setup and then select the Plotter Configuration name and pc3 name (not the driver) 11.
from the dropdown list.
If you would like to change the drivers settings, click the Properties button, then click the Custom 12.
Properties button. Make your changes and then click OK and then OK again.
Click New to create a new Plot Style table to set your pen widths. As a default, the ULS print driver 13.
produces vector output when pen widths are set to 0.001 inches (0.025 mm). If the pen widths are set
between 0.002 – 0.008 inches (0.050 – 0.20 mm), then the ULS print driver may or may not convert the
lines to raster images. This will depend on the image being plotted, therefore it is recommended that
for colors requiring vector output, set the pen widths to 0.001 inches (0.025 mm) and for colors requiring
raster output, set pen widths greater than 0.008 inches (0.20 mm).
Now, select Start from Scratch, and then click Next. Enter a name and then click Next. Click the Plot Style 14.
Table Editor button. Click Color one, hold the shift key on your keyboard and click colors two through seven.
You can only use colors one through seven with the ULS printer driver. With all seven colors highlighted, click
the Edit Lineweights button and then select the units desired. Add a lineweight of 0.001 inches (0.025 mm)
to the Value column by clicking on Edit Lineweight and entering 0.001 (or 0.025 for metric settings). Click OK,
click Save & Close and then click Finish.
Click the Layout Settings tab and set the Plot Scale to 1:1. 15.
AutoCAD is now set up properly to work with the ULS printer driver. 16.
