• AO Plotter suppliers

    Posted by Vince Francis on May 25, 2005 at 6:31 pm

    Hi

    Im looking for a new plotter, we have an AO size at mo, not looking for anything fancy, just needs to print in black. We never use color

    Ours seems to be wearing out a little, any ideas of a good supplier, one who has good backup service.

    Thanks

    Vince

    Hi

    All we print is the line drawings our guys need to cut out letters. So colour will be of no use to us. Our plotter at the mo is a HP, very good, but after 6 years its showing signs of major wear and tear. We use approx 500 mtrs of paper a month!

    So thats why im trying to find a good replacement, at a reasonable price. Im out of touch on suppliers of these now.

    have you considered a pen in the vinyl cutter most have this option.

    i print full size boat drawings for some boat builders but have not found a pen reliable enough over a 4 x1 mtr plot but around a mtr square would be fine and quicker

    Hi Chris

    I have, but in the past have found cutters more expensive.

    I guess at the right price i will consider anything
