talking to my pen plotter (roland grx-400ag)
« on: Aug 8th, 2004, 12:42pm »

just got a pen plotter for free ... happy me.
 
now i'm trying to get processing to talk to it. i guess the plotter's language of choice is HP-GL. it came with a manual full of very old basic code (which it somehow doesn't like). hmmm.
 
i'm looking for any links or libraries or else to get me started ...
ideas?
 
once it works we can talk about a send-a-sketch-receive-on-paper ..
