Vintage HP Hewlett Packard 7440A ColorPro Plotter with Power Supply & Carousel

Description

HP Hewlett Packard 7440A ColorPro Plotter
For sale- an HP Hewlett Packard 7440A ColorPro Plotter as pictured.
To my shock and amazement some of the old plotter pens I had in storage still work, maybe not great but good enough to print a test plot as pictured.
The colors might not be in the right places, I just randomly loaded the included carousel.
But the plotter does demonstrably load the paper and switches out the pens and produces what looks to me like the desired outcome of a demonstration plot, more or less.
The old pens are NOT included only because I have more of these things to test.
What is included is the very proprietary power supply.
So other than new pens and maybe some software driver(s) you should perhaps be ready to go.
Untested other than as pictured and described, sold as is, and NO warranty is offered.
HOWEVER, IF you pay the asking price and it has a problem that you cannot live with within 14 days of receipt you may return it.
Returns are ONLY allowed on Buy It Now purchases
.
Accepted Best Offers are strictly an as is sale, no returns allowed.
Return would be for a refund of the purchase price, not including shipping costs.
As you can probably see there is a bit of residual magic marker on top of the plotter, an inventory number or something.
I have scrubbed that to the point that it is pretty toned down from what it was and I would guess if you were willing to put some more scrub action on it maybe you could get it to disappear.
There was more marker in the back, “Property of” stuff, that I think is gone entirely but there may still be a trace.
You will probably also want to clean the pinch rollers on both sides as they left trace grunge on the edges of the demo plot.
Will leave that to you.
