Re: HP 7475 plotter

I have a few myself. some parallel, some serial and some GPIB. I
think none have the pen carolses. and no manuals.

I was thinking about this,
http://on1djj.rug.ac.be/HP7475-engraver/Pictures/TryingGallery.html

but have other stuff to keep me busy these days.

another idea, and you can see this on one of the pictures, that guy
put a pen on the plotter to draw traces for pcboards. I thought that
was a great idea.
