- Does anyone else have HP730s they are trying to use with Versatec Plotters?
-
- Xerox (Versatec) released a device that sorta replaces the ICON board on
- the 3XXXX Domain systems. The 130 basically just interfaces into the SCSI
- bus and you can setup the Plotter as a parallel device.
-
- Problem is that it requires Blocked Raster and Versatec Plotter VPR software
- from Mentor Graphics puts it into some other Rastor (mystery rastor format).
-
- Does anyone know anything about VPR's format and if it can be converted to
- Blocked Raster? Apperently Mentor isn't planning on fixing their VPR
- software on the 730s till 8.3 (yea right. 8.2 isn't even out).
