Help

I just got an old Calcomp DrawingMaster Plus raster
plotter and I am tryiong to set it up under windows XP.
The driver installs but it will not accept it. I have to
get this working. It works fine for vector plotting
under AutoCAD 2004 but not windows. HELP!!!

There is a commercial diver solution available here:

http://www.draftingsolutions.nu/
WinLINE plotter driver

They have an XP version, it appears to offer more flexibility than the
native XP driver. All of their drivers are a bit pricey...
