I am sure it has been discussed before so I apologize for posting this. I have aerials with lots of parcels and lineweights. I am printing to 24x36 on an HP T1100. After about 40 minutes, the one sheet finally gets sent to the plotter.

The file size to the ploter was about 97 MB, well below my memory on the plotter. My assumption is that for some reason my CAD machine is having to reduce the information somewhat. My question is, how can I make that a little faster?
It is kind of annoying.
