what are the advantages of using a plot to produce printout ?
Answers
Answer:
A plotter is a device that draws images on paper after receiving a command from a computer. It differs from the classical printer by using pens to actualize its pictures and thus produce continuous lines, whereas printers simulate lines by means of a series of tiny dots. Multicolor plotters use different-colored pens to draw their lines.
Advantages
Plotters are able to work on large sheets -- 2 or more feet -- of paper and still maintain high quality resolution. In addition, a plotter may print on a wide variety of materials and thus offer its user many options. Materials that a plotter can draw on include sheet steel, plywood, aluminum, plastic, cardboard and almost any flat sheet material. Efficiency, reproducibility, accuracy and speed are all attributes of a plotter. Plotters can save all patterns and templates on disk and eliminate the hassle of having to load the same patterns or templates over and over again. Additionally, the same pattern can be drawn thousands of time without any degradation.
Disadvantages
Although plotters offer many advantages, if you are working with limited space, you may have a difficult time finding the right location for your plotter. They take up more space than regular printers. Furthermore, the price of a plotter is much higher than the price of printer.
