Tray Tolerance

Wish I could help, how bout anyone else

We use Tray Tolerance too (and always turn it on, I wish both it and inch mode would be default for the U.S. distro. hint, hint, Rick
Sorry, I do not have the answer to your question about dpi used. But I recommend NOT usnng oversize pages, instead set the printable area to max within the printer driver or PC3. Here's why. This is a related issue we came across last week.
The cust had a page templte set up at 36.04" x 24.04", and it printed fine for a couple of years, until they tried to use plot stamping in autocad. We spent hours trying to reposition the stamp getting weird results. In the end we found that a 36x24 template worked best. Not sure why they ever set it up oversized.

BTW, this was with PB 3.6. We're not liking 3.7 yet.

The drawings my customer is printing are downloaded from bid sites and so the size is not within their control. Thanks for the info on the CAD drawing. BTW, what don't you like with 3.7?

I'm pretty sure this has to do with original file resolution, since we don't have a 150dpi print option.

If your original file resolution is 600dpi (god help ya), then 65 pixels would mean roughly 3mm. (roughly 1/10 of an inch).

Well, If they are using Plot Client, they can force the prints to 30x42 really easily. (That will affect scale slightly, but most folks who are concerned about scale do not realize how dimensionally unstable a paper print is with humidity and temp factors).
We've had some weird issues with 3.7, especially regarding scanning. In addition to the strange new interface, there are a number of features that do not work, or are hard to configure. It's been about a year since I played with 3.7, all I remember is having problems with every upgrade, and no real support available.
