Recently I have been having a problem printing PDF documents through the Acrobat Reader DC (64 bit) to my HP Plotter.
I have printed many PDF files on this printer in the past but all of a sudden it wont send the files to the plotter. It previews the file fine, however when selecting the print size it wont change from 8.5 x 11inch, whether I select a different or custom paper size.
I have checked and updated all programs, software and drivers and this has made no change. The files will print to other printers fine, just wont send the file to print with the plotter. When trying to print from browser, the print preview wont even come up (see attached photo).

I am also having the exact same problem. Have been for at least a year. Would love a solution, other than "unplug it and plug it back in".
