A.    For AutoCAD prior to version 12 and all Non-Windows based programs:
      
      1.    There are no new drivers to install.  In general, use a 907/PCI
            driver selection such as a CalComp 104x, 102x plotter driver.
      
      2.    An HPGL driver selection may also be used. The plotter supports:
            HPGL-L and HPGL-S formats. Selection choices recommended include:
            HP7580, HP7585, HP7586, HP Draft Pro, or HP Draft Master.

B.    For AutoCAD 12, 13, or 14 (DOS, Windows 3.x, Win95, or Windows NT):
      
      1.    Drivers and documentation is available on the CalComp Web Site
            (http//:www.calcomp.com). The files are self-extracting. Once downloaded,
            simply type the file name, and it will self-extract, producing
            the documentation and driver files.
            
            a.    File name: PLPCCDOS.EXE  for AutoCAD 12 or 13 DOS.
            
            b.    File name: PLPCCWIN.EXE  for AutoCAD 12, 13, OR 14 Windows  
                  (running under Windows 3.x, Windows 95, or Windows NT).

C.    For Windows 3.x based programs, including ACAD LT:
      
      1.    	Use the CalComp Windows Driver. The driver supports the PCI 
            	vector data format for this plotter. The file is available from 
            	the CalComp website (http>//www.calcomp.com), 
		file name: WIN31DRV.EXE).  The file is self-extracting. Once 
		downloaded, simply type the file name, and it will self-extract, 
		producing the documentation and driver files.
     
      2.    An HPGL Windows driver selection may also be used. The plotter
            supports: HPGL-L and HPGL-S formats. Selection choices
            recommended include: HP7580, HP7585, HP7586, HP Draft Pro, or HP
            Draft Master. The HPGL drivers were included as a part of the 
            Windows software. CalComp does not distribute this.

D.    For Windows 95-based programs, including ACAD LT:
      
      1.    	Use the CalComp Windows 95 Driver. The driver supports the PCI 
            	vector data format for this plotter. The file is available from
            	the CalComp website (http://www.calcomp.com)
		(file name: WIN95VEC.EXE).  The files are self-extracting. Once

      1.    CalComp has no system drivers for Windows NT (all versions). 
      
      2.    The only HPGL drivers available in Windows NT are HPGL/2. The
            plotter does not accept this format.
      
F.    For Macintosh based programs:
      
      1.    Microspot makes a driver called MacPlot which will work with this
            plotter.
            
            a.    The driver may be ordered from Microspot (1-800-MAC-PLOT).
