[comp.sys.apple2] Apple Color Plotter

greg@hoss.unl.edu (Hammer) (07/18/90)

I've gotten more information on the color plotter, specifically the model
number:  A9M0302.  I have no manual.  The only thing that I have with the
plotter is a multi-colored print test.  The printer itself has no specific
name printed on it, other than that model number on the back, and an Apple
logo on the front.  I have a custom cable for it, but strangely enough,
the part that plugs in the back of the printer is the wrong gender, and
the one for the computer end looks like it is the wrong size, so I doubt
that it is even the right cable.  (Gee, I wonder why.)

   Someone said they had an Apple Color Plotter? Boy, that's a real classic. I
thought I was the only person with one :). It uses a standard RS-232-C serial
interface, and should work fine with the GS's printer port, or the Super
Serial Card on a //e. As for software, that's a problem. You might have to
write your own. I have one program (Geo Plot) that works with it, but that's
all. If you have any problems with it, e-mail me, as I have complete dox for
the thing.
