   It was marketed as "printer/plotter", which was true. From certain point   
   of view :-)   
      
   It was good for plotting line graphics and it had the ability to plot   
   text, with a nice vector font...

   You can find the font about mid-page down there.   
      
   But I would not recommend to use the plotter to colour-fill any sizeable   
   paper area. Or "print" longer BASIC listings (as I myself tried back in   
   the days :-)
