Hi there,
I have a plotter witch should work with the HP7475 configuration,
the only problem is I can't find a driver for it.
All help with finding it will be gratefully accepted.
Thanks in advance

Tony,
I don't have a 7475 in front of me, but here's the steps to
initiate the self-test:
1. Turn off power
2. Load pens
Pen 1 = Black
Pen 2 = Black
Pen 3 = Red
Pen 4 = Green
Pen 5 = Blue
Pen 6 = Violet
3. Load paper
4. Hold P1 and P2 down
5. Turn on power
6. Release P1 and P2 when plotting begins
Cheers,
Dan

Wow, I learn something from this list every day it seems :)
Maybe one day I should find a book for the 7475s I've got stored away?

Talking of 7475s. I have what appears to be an
IBM-badged HP7475 on the
bench at the moment. It's got an HPIB interface (labelled IEEE488, BTW).
I don't know if the firmware is the standard HP stuff or not -- the ROMs
have HP 1818-xxxx numbers but that doesn't mean much.

If I can attempt to run the test I can see (a) if the ROMs are certainly
different (if it doesn't run the test at all) and (b) if there's still a
'Hewlett Packard' or 'HP' on the test plot.
IIRC, mine had some sort of menu option for some internal tests, but I
don't recall a plot test. I did basic plot tests on my plotters from the
computer.
