The HCOPy:DEVice <TYPE> command allows you to select a hardcopy device.
The following selections can be made:
The HCOPy:DATA? query allows you to request a hardcopy of the picture on the
screen of your CombiScope instrument. The response data is formatted
according to the current printer/plotter options, which can be selected via the front
panel UTILITY menu. After a
*
RST command, the option "plotter; HPGL" is
selected.
The response data to a HCOPy:DATA? query can be sent to a connected plotter
or printer to make a hardcopy. The response data is sent as block data of
indefinite length and is therefore, preceded by the preamble #0 of 2 bytes. This
preamble must be removed from the beginning of the block data, before sending
it to a plotter or printer device.
