And it works! Here’s a video of the HP 7585B #PenPlotter plotting a big arc Truchet tile design using three colors (yellow, cyan, and magenta) on 11x15 watercolor. Total time 1h15m.

@tonymasiello Thanks! It's a beast of a machine. Extremely heavy, cast and extruded metal case and stand. First one I got in 2018 which I had to repair it (link to blog below). It developed a more serious issue that I haven't puzzled out yet so it's a parts machine for the moment. The second one I got a few years later.

@vga256 Yeah it howls! It's a single large fan. I've already had to replace the one in my EXL. I just got the exact replacement. Can it be replaced any any kind of fan? The plotter controls the speed.

@tehstu It is remarkable that it works so well, especially considering it will change pens automatically and continue with the same prevision. It can also draw much faster than is shown here as well (I slowed it down to get good sharp lines).

@arcadeshopper That's the stuff right there!
