Solution

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. ... Data from the computer is translated into signals which cause tiny incremental movements of the plotter's pen.

A plotter is a printer designed for printing vector graphics. Instead of printing individual dots on the paper, plotters draw continuous lines. This makes plotters ideal for printing architectural blueprints, engineering designs, and other CAD drawings. There are two main types of plotters – drum and flatbed plotters.

Computer plotters are a type of output device commonly used for computer-aided design applications, to output large vector designs such as architectural blueprints. By moving a pen mechanically, plotters draw line art onto the surface of the paper to reproduce vector graphics drawn on a computer.
