Plotter Settings

The device driver expects that the plotter is switched to EXPAND mode. In this mode only the pen can be moved as close as possible to the physical edges of the paper. If you are using RS232 serial interface, be sure that the HARDWARE/MONITOR switch at the rear is set to 'HARDWARE'. If the handshake between host and plotter does not work correctly, data can be lost.
