Plotter
An output device.
A plotter will draw an image according to the instructions given from a connected computer.
Plotters are often used by engineers, designers and architects to produce large technical drawings (often a metre wide and any length).
The paper is rolled back and forth, while a set of ink pens move side to side, dropping down onto the paper when required.
