Changing the plotter's logical pen characteristics

The characteristics of the plotter's logical pens, referenced by your software, can
be set either by software or by the settings for pens 1 through 8 in the Setup Sheet.
The default is to use settings from the software.
Sometimes you may, for example, want to produce a set of drawings all with the
same pen settings, but without having to change the software settings for the
individual drawings. In this case you can choose to provide the pen settings from
the plotter.
If you want to provide your own settings in the plotter and use those, use the

Using this option, you can specify the
