Sorry, I don't have a picture of it. I've found reference to it
by Google-ing, but only a couple of references. I do remember it.
It was flat, sat on a table, was maybe 14" x 14" (a guess), and
had little pens that you mounted in the "drawing arm" or whatever
you want to call it. I have a page of documentation on how to
use it from our 1978 computer center "user's guide".

A 7200??? I've never heard of one and the model number doesn't fit with
the ones that I've heard of. Do you have a picture?

Ok, I'm going to surprise everyone and ask a
question about a non-DEC item. Does anyone here
have an HP 7200A plotter that they would like to
get rid of? These were used in the 1970s.

P.S. Even though it's a non-DEC thing, we used to
have one connected to our PDP-11/40. I can't seem
to find many references to these on Google or
anywhere else.
