Roland "DXG-1100" pen plotter

Hello :)

Well, since my username is rather obscure, I thought I'd better get on and show you all what it means, and what I got from "Freecycle" here in England. The gentleman who donated it is an ex-engineer (not sure what kind) I think... and he even asked his wife TO DELIVER it to me; how's that for kind!







Does anyone have any UK sources for Roland/HP plotter pens, or know the best kind of readily available "human held" pens (IE: Normal pens :D) that I can modify to fit it, and which have a strong nib and a good ink flow?

I *love* *love* *love* this thing! It's the best Freecycle find in AGES, and provides me HOURS of entertainment. I want to, eventually, use it for my schematics. Sadly, it only supports up to Windows XP... ah well - no problem :)

Why is it drawing elements of that schematic in seemingly random order? Seems somewhat inefficient.

I have absolutely no use for this whatsoever and yet I want one. ;D

It's probably drawing them in the order in which the software listed them, which is probably related to the order in which they were placed.

steve30:
That circuit diagram looks nice :). I wouldn't mind a plotter like that.

Can it draw directly onto PCBs?
