[Closed] Where to sell a plotter?

eBay - lots of this sort of stuff on there.

Don't expect it to fetch much though.

I thought that first, but I don't know much about it other than it worked. Reading descriptions they need network cards, hard drives etc so I'd rather someone just looked at it and picked it up.

We are still using a 1050C - nothing special was needed to get it going although cartridges are becoming difficult to find. Stinkyink do re-manufactured ones at far less than new old stock HP ones.
We actually had two but our printer man had to strip one for parts to keep the other one going.
You might get £50 on ebay or try a printer fixer man and see if he wants it for spares.

Hmmmmmmmm......

*wonders if having one of these suddenly appear in the dining room would be considered grounds for divorce*

TINAS, haven't you just left an engineering firm? Are they by any chance now missing a plotter? 😉

You might get a better price on Amazon than eBay. This stuff doesn't fetch much, if you can show that it is a good un (low number of prints etc) you might be able to sell direct to a locla firm or a firm that hires them out.

I moved house last week and on moving day an enormous A0 old school 1950s drawing board turned up in the dining room. It's my new desk. I went with the concept that she was going to be stressed and stroppy on moving day anyway so I'd get the pain out of the way all in one go.

Haha, it's being liberated from an office clearance I'm doing, I almost went in WEE pile!

Binners, drop me an e-mail if you want it, I can deliver it to Manchester. As far as I know it works perfectly, but it doesn't work with Windows 10, hence it's got to go.

I would have thought the best place for it would be the House of Commons, be right at home.....

It's the year 2016, we all have supercomputers in our pockets, but I still think plotters are incredibly cool. I'm almost tempted to buy this, and get it to draw circles all day while I watch.

You'll be dissapointed northwond thats just a massive printer.

What you want is a pen plotter.

TINAS - let me run this one up the flagpole with the committee this evening, see if they [s]shoot it down with an anti-aircraft gun, then gleefully dance on its grave[/s] salute it, and I'll give you a shout

If binners doesn't want it I know an architect who might. Not me - no room here. I'll check with him.

Pen plotters - ace bit of kit. When we were students we got wind of an office clearing one out. We rocked up with a bunch of flowers for the office manager and she let us walk out with a fully working pen plotter. Happy days 😀

Life is so cruel

Strap a fat laser diode on it and make yourself a DIY laser cutter.

TINAS - he's just got a free one recently. Must be plenty of these around right now then with the switch to windows 10. I suppose you just have an old pc running windows 7 to drive it then?
