What driver to use for your system or application.

A.    For AutoCAD prior to version 12 and all DOS-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 [HP 7595A, HP 7580B, HP 7585B]; HPGL-S [HP 7440]; 
            and  HPGL/2 & HPGL/RTL [HP 650C (C2859B)] formats. 
            For a more complete list of supported HPGL models, refer to the 
            Reference Manual.

B.    For AutoCAD 12 or 13 (DOS, Windows or Windows NT):
      
      1.    Drivers and documentation are available on the CalComp Website
             (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: PLPCCGUI.EXE  for AutoCAD 12 or 13 DOS or
                  Windows (3.x, 95, or NT).

C.    For AutoCAD 14 Windows 95 or Windows NT):
      
      1.    	Use the ADI driver that comes with your AutoCAD program.  However, if you 
	experience difficulty with certain pen commands, you may download 
	and use the file PLPCCGUI.EXE. Drivers and documentation are available on 
	the CalComp website (http://www.calcomp.com)
	
	The file is self-extracting. Once downloaded, simply type the file name, and 
	it will self-extract, producing the documentation and driver files.

C.    For Windows 3.x based programs, including ACAD LT:
      
      1.    Use the CalComp Windows Driver. The file is available from the
            CalComp ebsite (http://www.calcomp.com), file name is
            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.
            
            a.    The driver supports the CCRF raster format, when using the
                  parallel port. This is the preferred format. Configure the plotter
                  to set CCRF Mode to Direct.
            
            b.    The driver also supports the PCI vector data format for
                  this plotter. If plotter can only be connected serially,
                  then use this driver.
      
      2.    You may also use an HPGL Windows driver. The plotter
            supports: HPGL-L (HP7595, HP7580B, and HP7585B), and HPGL-S 
	(HP 7440) formats. The HPGL drivers were included as a part of the
            Windows software. CalComp does not distribute HPGL drivers.

D.    For Windows 95-based programs, including ACAD LT:
      
      1.    Use the CalComp Windows 95 Driver. The file is available from the
            CalComp Website, (http://www.calcomp.com). The file name is
            WIN95DRV.EXE.  The file is self-extracting. Once downloaded,
            simply type the file name, and it will self-extract, producing
            the documentation and driver files.
            
            a.    The driver supports the CCRF raster format, when using the
                  parallel port. This is the preferred format. Configure the 
                  plotter to set CCRF Mode to Direct.

	b.	If you are using a CAD application, or have a serial connection to 
		your host computer, you may prefer the 907/PCI driver.  This driver 
		is available from the CalComp website (http://www.calcomp.com) 
                                The file name is WIN95VEC.EXE.   The file is self-extracting, and
		 contains installation instructions in the README.TXT file.

E.    For Windows NT based programs:
      
      1.    Use the CCRF/PS NT (raster-mode) driver. The file is available 
            on the CalComp Website (http://www.calcomp.com).  The file name is

                 WINNT350.EXE for Windows NT 3.5

           	 NT351X86.EXE for Win NT 3.51 on a PC/compatable
                          for installing driver from hard disk.

                 NT351D86.EXE  for Win NT 3.51 on a PC/compatable
                          for installing driver from floppy diskette.

            NT40X86.EXE   for Win NT 4.0 on a PC/compatable
                          for installing driver from hard disk.

            NT40D86.EXE   for Win NT 4.0 on a PC/compatable
                          for installing driver from floppy diskette.

            NT40AL.EXE    for Win NT 4.0 on DEC/Alpha.

       
                 The file is self-extracting. Simply download the appropriate file, 
                  type the filename to extract the driver files and 
                  documentation.  The files should be extracted to an 
                  empty directory on the hard drive.
            
     2.    An HPGL driver selection may also be used.  The plotter supports:
            HPGL-L [HP 7595A, HP 7580B, HP 7585B]; HPGL-S [HP 7440]; 
            and  HPGL/2 & HPGL/RTL [HP 650C (C2859B)] formats. 
            For a more complete list of supported HPGL models, refer to the 
            Reference Manual.

            a.    If using Windows NT 4.0, select the HP DesignJET 650c (C2859B).

F.    For Macintosh-based systems:
      If the plotter has the internal PostScript compatable option installed,
      use the standard Laserwriter driver that comes with the Macintosh operating 
      system.
            
      1.    The plotter is shipped with an installation diskette. If a replacement 
            is necessary, it is available on the CalComp BBS (714/236-3045 or
            714/821-2359). The file name is: 55XXPPD.HQX.  
            The file is self-extracting. Simply double-click on the file name icon 
            and it will create the documentation and driver files. Included are 
            the neccessary PPD files.  Use the MacBinary file transfer option 
            when downloading files for the Macintosh.
