- Definition(s)
- A device that draws pictures on paper based on commands from a computer. Plotters differ from printers in that they draw lines using a pen. As a result, they can produce continuous lines, whereas printers can only simulate lines by printing a closely spaced series of dots. Multicolor plotters use different-colored pens to draw different colors. bluedogink.com
- Example sentence(s)
- Once the schematics for the image are complete, the computer downloads the coordinates to the plotter, which interprets the code and calculates the most efficient path for the pen and paper. - eHow, Inc.
by - Pen plotters work by moving a pen across the surface of a piece of paper, meaning that plotters are confined to line art, and are incapable of producing rasterized graphics like other printers. It is possible to draw complex line art designs and text, but pen plotters are considerably slower, owing to the pen’s mechanical movements. - richcolorprinters.com
by - Plotters are used primarily in technical drawing and CAD applications, where they have the advantage of working on very large paper sizes while maintaining high resolution. - reference.com

- Ierīce, kas paredzēta datu izvadei no datora grafisku attēlu veidā. Parasti lieto planšetes vai veltņa tipa ploterus. Datiem jābūt vektorgrafikas formā. Attēls tiek veidots no līniju fragmentiem, zīmējot tos uz papīra vai nu ar tinti, vai ar elektrostatisku lādiņu un tonera palīdzību. Ploterus parasti izmanto datorizētas projektēšanas sistēmās un prezentēšanas grafikas sagatavošanai. www.termini.lv - by Sandra Kuple

- Definition(s)
- Een plotter of elektronische tekentafel is traditioneel een apparaat, dat onder besturing van een computer tekeningen op papier zet. Moderne ontwikkelingen hebben het ook mogelijk gemaakt om met behulp van lasers, waterstralen, roterende mesjes en frezen ook totaal andere materialen te bewerken, zoals hout, kunststof, metaal en plakfolies. Own research - by André Noordermeer
- Example sentence(s)
- Een plotter is een uitvoerapparaat waarmee (lijn)tekeningen, in het bijzonder technische tekeningen, kunnen worden gemaakt.
Van oorsprong is het een pen die met behulp van twee haaks op elkaar staande armen over een vel papier kan worden bewogen. Het apparaat wordt plotter genoemd om het te onderscheiden van het andere uitvoerapparaat de (daisywheel- of matrix-)printer.
Sinds voor plotters gebruik wordt gemaakt van de inktjet-techniek is er qua technische werking weinig verschil tussen een plotter en een printer. Een plotter kan grotere papierformaten (tot A0) bedrukken.
