Using printer configuration files

Printer configuration files store the printer information you use for specific drawings or layouts, which eliminates the need to completely reconfigure your print settings each time you print a drawing. Printer configuration files also allow you to share and reuse print settings between different drawings and layouts.

progeCAD supports the printer configuration files (PCP and PC3 files) used by AutoCAD. This feature makes it possible to use existing PCP files saved in AutoCAD, as well as to save your progeCAD print configuration settings to the PC3 format.

You can convert an AutoCAD PC2 or PCP file using the AutoCAD PCINWIZARD command.
