MakeICT has a Plotter, which now works, after a fair bit of effort. It is an HP Designjet 1050c Plus and it resides in the classroom. This page is a work in progress.
For now, please see James for the settings (as they are subject to change.)
You will need the drivers on Windows or Mac, these are available here on HP's site.
Note that not all programs will handle things well, If you print to it from Inkscape, which works well for both vector and raster images (and unlike most programs, handles the paper sizes correctly. Make sure to use Version 0.92 to print to the plotter, because of a bug fixed on 0.92.
