The Reference Manual states:

Select the Print to file check box if you need to create a file for remote printing.
In the Print To File dialog, type the entire
pathname of the file to be printed, making
sure the name has a .prn or .plt extension.

So if you did not input the entire file and pathway name, the print file will not then exist. Long ago, I stopped using the print to file method in favor of printing to PDF, that way, I felt I had greater control over the WYSIWYG of the process.

I agree with David, PDF's are the way to go

I don't think any Chiefers are using .PLT files

Yes PDF is the best way to go and I find Nitro Pro 8 works great a lot cheaper than Adobe Pro
