A high quality CAD system uses the following for printing drawing and graphs.
The correct option is B Digital plotter
A high quality CAD system
uses the Digital plotter for printing drawing and graphs.
A digital plotter is a
computer output device which draws curves and other computer graphics data on
ordinary 8-1/2 × 11 inch (21.6 × 27.9 cm) paper. See Fig. 2-24.
Data from the computer is
translated into signals which cause tiny incremental movements of the plotter's
pen. The pen on the plotter (a felt-tip ink pen) is moved by a combination of X
and Y carriage motions. The pen can move in eight different directions. These
eight directions are used to simulate all the movements necessary to create
curves. Since the incremental movement of the plotter is small (0.005 inch or
127μm) proper selection of directional moves combine into what the eye
perceives as a smooth curve or line.
The plotter is a computer
printer for printing vector graphics. In the past, plotters were used in
applications such as computer-aided design, though they have generally been
replaced with wide-format conventional printers. A plotter gives a hard copy of
the output. It draws pictures on a paper using a pen.
