- 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 by

- Example sentence(s)
- ¿Alguna vez ha pasado usted por un negocio de impresión y ha visto que utilizan en algunos de ellos una máquina a la que se suministra papel que muchas veces llega éste hasta el suelo? Pues se trata de un Plotter o trazador gráfico, uno de los instrumentos con los que estos locales se valen para plasmar reproducciones de todo tipo, que son previamente diseñadas o adaptadas a un ordenador o una computadora. Para exponer de forma más fácil el funcionamiento principal de un Plotter, digamos que se trata de una imprenta digital (bueno, hablamos de los trazadores más modernos). Este trazador puede imprimir letras, dibujos, fotografías a una gran calidad. - Vida digital by Mercedes Pacheco
