Pengertian Plotter
Plotter merupakan jenis printer yang dirancang secara khusus guna menghasilkan output komputer yang berupa gambar ataupun grafik. Dengan menghubungkan plotter pada sistem komputer, maka pelbagai bentuk gambar akan dapat disajikan secara prima. Landscape-arsitektur banyak menggunakan plotter guna menghasilkan gambar landscape, potongan pohon, ataupun untuk membantu memvisualisasikan efek dari segala kegiatan yang ada.
Head dari plotter terdiri dari beberapa buah pena berwarna yang secara terus-menerus akan bergerak keatas kertas gambar guna menghasilkan gambar yang sebelumnya telah dirancang pada sistem komputer. Secara umum, bagian yang ada didalam plotter terbagi menjadi dua, yaitu drum-plotter dan table-top-plotters (flatbad). Flatbad plotter yang dilengkapi dengan pena ataupun gantungan pena yang selalu bergerak menyelusuri permukaan kertas guna menghasilkan gambar
Inkjet Plotters merupakan plotter jenis lain yang bisa menghasilkan berbagai image dengan menggunakan semprotan tinta dari pelbagai warna yang mana warna ini kemudian akan menempel pada kertas yang tergulung pada sebuah drum. Komputer yang dihubungkan dengan inkjet plotter ini, akan mengontrol pergerakan drum serta semprotan dari tinta yang bersangkutan. Inkjet plotter dapat menghasilkan pelbagai kombinasi warna gambar secara cepat, tenang dan tepat.
PLOTTER
Sama fungsinya dengan printer tetapi khusus untuk mencetak gambar. Kertas yang dipergunakan juga lebih besar dari kertas biasa. Plotter generasi pertama harus dipasangi rapido (pena khusus untuk menggambar), namun sekarang plotter juga terdiri dari inkjet dan laser.

IN ENGLISH
A plotter is a computer printing device for printing vector graphics. In the past, plotters were widely used in applications such as computer-aided design, though they have generally been replaced with wide-format conventional printers. It is now commonplace to refer to such wide-format printers as "plotters," even though they technically aren't.
Pen plotters print by moving a pen or other instrument across the surface of a piece of paper. This means that plotters are restricted to line art, rather than raster graphics as with other printers. Pen plotters can draw complex line art, including text, but do so slowly because of the mechanical movement of the pens. They are often incapable of efficiently creating a solid region of color, but can hatch an area by drawing a number of close, regular lines.
Plotters offered the fastest way to efficiently produce very large drawings or color high-resolution vector-based artwork when computer memory was very expensive and processor power was very limited, and other types of printers had limited graphic output capabilities.
Pen plotters have essentially become obsolete, and have been replaced by large-format inkjet printers and LED toner based printers. Such devices may still understand vector languages originally designed for plotter use, because in many uses, they offer a more efficient alternative to raster data.
Cutting plotter knives cut into a piece of material (paper, mylar or vinyl) that is lying on the flat surface area of the plotter. It is achieved because the cutting plotter is connected to a computer, which is equipped with specialized cutting design or drawing computer software programs. Those computer software programs are responsible for sending the necessary cutting dimensions or designs in order to command the cutting knife to produce the correct project cutting needs.
