Is there a DWG TrueView plot black white printing option?

 

Greetings, 

 

A .ctb or .stb file will be needed to print in black /white, or drawings in their colors and lineweights, pretty much like plotting in Autocad. You may need to find out how to create the .stb or .ctb file. Plot styles are very similar to Autocad. Go to Tools, then Options. Under the Files tab, look for Printer Support File Path, and place the .stb or .ctb file in the path listed for Plot Style Table Search Path. Drawings should plot correctly after doing this. 

Alternatively, you may try changing the printer settings by going to File > Print > Properties. Specify black and white printing and press OK. Changing this setting will only apply to this print job.
