Fine Plot Scale Adjustments

Fine Plot Scale Adjustments

(OP)
Do you know of a driver that will allow me to individual fine tune the scale in the "X" and "Y" axis for an old HP-GL/2 Draft Master pen plotter.
Our plotter must plot very accurately for our charts, less than .010 error over 30" (which equates to .0003 error at 20:1 scale).
Our new cad program is Visi 16 and we're having complications scaling thru it. It permanently scales the drawing until we unscale it, which will lead to issues if somebody forgets.
Thanks
