Thanks for the feedback.

Currently we are using a Xerox 8825. It is nearing the end of its life, so I'm just looking for a good replacement. We run an older CAD program on a Sun box. A previous IT manager set it up in Solaris, and I don't know if he just used the standard OS "Add Printer" method through the GUI or what. (I have a hunch not.... he hated GUIs and always used the command line.)

As far as large format devices go, Oracle's HCL for Solaris doesn't look very promising, but I'm not sure it's the "final word" on what will or won't work.

I certainly don't plan on buying anything before I can be shown it is already being used in a working environment.

Oce is another plotter brand that a rep is trying to sell us. He says he has several Unix clients using it. I need to talk to them and find out which Unix they are using. Oce was bought by Canon, but the hardware is still Oce's, so I don't think they would automatically be ruled out just because of the Canon name being tied to them.

If I find out anything useful, I'll post the info.

Image::ExifTool::CanonRaw(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			      Image::ExifTool::CanonRaw(3)

NAME

       Image::ExifTool::CanonRaw - Read Canon RAW (CRW) meta information

SYNOPSIS

       This module is loaded automatically by Image::ExifTool when required.

DESCRIPTION

       This module contains definitions required by Image::ExifTool to interpret meta information from Canon CRW raw files.  These files are
       written directly by some Canon cameras, and contain meta information similar to that found in the EXIF Canon maker notes.

NOTES

       The CR2 format written by some Canon cameras is very different the CRW format processed by this module.	(CR2 is TIFF-based and uses
       standard EXIF tags.)
