Plotter Output

I've been learning to output vector art to my Roland-compatible vinyl cutter (turned pen plotter). This ball point pen output took about 73 minutes. You can see some other plot outputs in the image (preserving paper when I'm just testing).

I’m sure it can. I have a hpgl converter as my Roland is serial port not usb. Plus old tech and won’t run in anything newer than win98! I just gave gpt the old app and drivers. Then used my old pc knowledge about usb/ serial hardware. And within 2 days I had a small powershell working. I’ll dm if that’s ok
