It'll be the second "plotter" I've picked up for little or nothing (I
was actually a good 10 miles from "ground zero" before I realized this thing is
just a big ink jet printer, not a plotter). Anyway it should be good for making large
format schematics and whatnot. Doesn't everybody love those?
Anyone w/docs or drivers please contact me. Perhaps offlist.
Which one ?
I have a designjet 500ps. It has major ink leakage/spillage... and
cleaning it was a task...
I haven't put more than a few tests through it, so I don't know if the
leaking will come
back (don't know what caused it).
Only problems mine has currently, is I broke the spring loaded 'foot'
(but as mine has
the stand, this is not an issue (I think it is only needed for table top
operation ?) (I
broke it trying to mount the printer back on the stand... not a fun
operation alone)
The other problem is the service station.... on some power ups, it
errors on that unit.
If I power off and back on, it's good. I have not been able to figure
out why it has a
problem... which I could find another, as it was one of the parts hit
worst by the ink
mess.
Mine is a 24" model, but they made 36" models too.
What model is yours ?
