WinLINE Plotter Driver

WinLINE Plotter Driver

2005-05-06 by airelectric_rwrpg

Hello,

I recently bought a HP7470A plotter for making PCBs, but can't seem to 
find a freeware/cracked version of the WinLINE plotter driver which is 
needed for the plotter to work, and the original copy is too expensive 
for me, at US$200 per copy excluding shipping and tax.

Does anybody out here have a copy of the WinLINE driver? I'll share 
the cost with you, and I urgently need the driver ...

Thanks in advance!

wline wouldn't approve of you sharing a license.

Why don't you simply open a dos box and copy the plot file to the port.  
You must previously set the right port parameters with the set command, hp  
homepage has details.
