AutoCAD/Printing with Autocad 2000

Question
In R14 you could change all the pen types to #7, in order to print black & white hardcopies.  Can you do the same with 2000 or is there another method?

Answer
Autocad 2000 should have had the plot dialog box.  In the top right corner you should see an acad.pc3 or acad.ctb and a down arrow next to it that allows you to select other styles.  These are preconfigured plotter settings.  You can also edit them by selecting them and clicking on the icon next to them.  Hopefully once you find that little trick, the editing of the colors will be self explanatory but, if not, please feel free to ask again.

Hope that helps.
