30 x 42 Plotting

I have an HP 800 plotter and I'm trying to plot a 30" x 42" sheet. I'm trying to plot in the landscape direction on the plotter to speed up the plotting time. I've tried several settings in the menu and setup and the plotter always plots in the 30" direction and not the 42". What am I doing wrong? FYI, I'm running the latest V20 version of Datacad.

On my Canon iPF785 I have it set up to turn the sheet to "save paper" in the Windows Printer Properties tab. Haven't had an HP plotter for over 10 years so I'm not sure if their driver is the same way.
