versatec thermal plotter menu

--------------------------------
This menu is for making hardcopy of your images, using the Versatec thermal plotter. The procedure works as follows:

  1. You indicate the name of the image you want to plot by entering it in the B&W, Color, Screen, Bitmap, or Vector menu fields.
  2. Enter the width of the plot in the Plot width menu field. If you enter a width that is larger than the machine allows, it will be reduced for you.
  3. Enter the number of copies you want in the Copies menu field.
  4. Enter the paper size in the Paper size menu field. If you aren't sure about this, just try leaving it the way it is.
  5. Enter the donor roll type in the Donor roll type menu field. Again, if you're not sure, leave it as it is.
  6. Click on MAKE PLOT. The system will begin plotting the image.

The plotting happens "in the background," so you can continue doing other things, or ask for more plots, while it happens. Until your plot starts to appear, it is a good idea to leave the image that is being plotted alone.
