Calcomp 5500 techjet plotter

Hi All,

We have an old Calcomp 5500 plotter that plots very well. We have used it in
the past for plotting from autocad 14 which I believe has its own driver. We
recently bought a couple seats of SW and so far can only use the plotter by
outputting a .DWG file and then plotting it thru Autocad. Does anyone know
of a driver for Windows 2000 that would make possible plots directly from
SW? This is my first contact with this newsgroup and I appreciate any help
anyone can come up with.

I'm guessing you don't have a Windows driver for it - go to
http://www.calgraphinc.com/Support/plotterfils.html and see if it will work.
I don't know anything at all about this plotter, but this is my guess. SW
should be able to plot to any Windows printer/plotter.

Hey,

Thanks guys for the help. We have to move some equipment around before
hooking up the 5500 but it looks like, with your help, I've got the drivers
I need. Hopefully, everything will go smooth and I won't have to pester you
any more about this.

Thanks again,
