Sorry - I already have an HP desktop pen plotter sitting on the shelf and
that's probably worth less than yours, if that's possible.

Yeah, I have tried to give it away before and had no luck then either. I
hate to just throw it away however.
Maybe someday I will see if it has any interesting pieces in its
construction that I can scrounge
for something else.


Dale,

If we wait another 10-20 years, they'll probably bring something on Ebay,
assuming they make it that long.

Come to think of it, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to see what the pens
and paper fetch today, assuming you have any of that lying around.

I have a Calcomp 2036, E-size,8-pen plotter, and I use it almost every
day.
I run it off my Mac, and use for all sorts of CAD drawings and sheet
metal layouts.
It is so accurate I plot things life size and spray adhesive the paper
to the sheet metal.
Just cut to the lines and it is perfect every time.
Really great for multiple hole layouts.

Pen plotters rock.

Inkjets suck eggs.

Guess I have an E-size Easter Egg. Waiting for adjustment to fix it after relocation bangs.
