Epson has a large archive of stuff on their ftp server at
ftp://ftp.epson.com/ and there is always a chance that there may be a
manual for it buried there somewhere. Unfortunately there doesn't
seem to be a proper index of the ftp server so it has been a
challenge finding documentation for my various Epson disk drives and
printers.
Thanks for that pointer I have had a good search but found nothing
that old. It also looks like its the same plotter as the Tektronix
HC100. There are a couple of manuals for this on US E-Bay but for all
of them the total price for purchase and shipping to the UK comes out
at three times the cost of the plotter, which is a lot to pay when I
don't even know if the command set is the same...

It never hurts to send a note to tech support at companies like Epson -
I've often had success with getting PDFs of manuals that are not online
by asking nicely...
