    It may be that it is not a pen plotter used for making drawings – it is a vinyl CUTTER and so maybe won’t function properly except when used with signmaking software.

    I’m sure if you contact the AUTO CAD site or your software supplier they will be able to help you.

    dont think you will have any luck there.
    Autocad now only supports Windows printer drivers.
    Your only hope is a Windows DMPL based printer driver.
    But will it see the USB port if its connected USB
