    HP7550a Print Driver

    Thanks Mike. I was aware of this site, but feel it is too big a risk to buy their CD rom (with all the drivers I don't need just to get the one I do), at a substatial cost ($199.00) -- then possibly find it still doesn't get the device working. Even though it is a great plotter, it is so old...

    HP7550a Print Driver

    I have a Hellett Packard HP7550a plotter. This is a very good and precise plotter. But it seems HP no longer supports it, and I can't find a Winndows 98 print driver for it. Does anyone have one and/or is there a print driver available?? Thanks in advance.

    feet to metric

    I apologize if this question has been asked previously. There are so many hits on metric, it is overwhelming. I have a project where I have to add metric units to drawings that already contain US. But, in most cases, the measurements were placed as text, not as a calculated dimension. Is...
