plotter

GBK English to Indonesian Tech/Engineering Computers: Hardware
Definition from bluedogink.com:
A device that draws pictures on paper based on commands from a computer. Plotters differ from printers in that they draw lines using a pen. As a result, they can produce continuous lines, whereas printers can only simulate lines by printing a closely spaced series of dots. Multicolor plotters use different-colored pens to draw different colors.
Example sentences:
Once the schematics for the image are complete, the computer downloads the coordinates to the plotter, which interprets the code and calculates the most efficient path for the pen and paper. (eHow, Inc.)
Pen plotters work by moving a pen across the surface of a piece of paper, meaning that plotters are confined to line art, and are incapable of producing rasterized graphics like other printers. It is possible to draw complex line art designs and text, but pen plotters are considerably slower, owing to the pen’s mechanical movements. (richcolorprinters.com)
Plotters are used primarily in technical drawing and CAD applications, where they have the advantage of working on very large paper sizes while maintaining high resolution. (reference.com)

perajah

Perajah merupakan peranti keluaran yang dapat menghasilkan grafik atau gambar dengan kualitas tinggi dan berwarna. Perajah seringkali digunakan untuk membuat peta, gambar-gambar arsitektur, ataupun ilustrasi tiga dimensi yang biasanya berukuran terlalu besar bagi printer.
Definition from bluedogink.com:
Peranti yang mencoretkan gambar pada kertas berdasarkan perintah dari komputer. Perajah berbeda dengan pencetak karena perajah mencoretkan garis dengan menggunakan pena. Karenanya, perajah dapat menghasilkan garis menerus, sementara pencetak hanya dapat menyimulasi garis dengan mencetak rangkaian titik berspasi rapat. Perajah multiwarna menggunakan pena beda warna untuk menyapukan warna yang berbeda.
Example sentences:
Setelah skema citra sempurna, komputer mengunduh koordinat skema tersebut ke perajah, yang menafsirkan kodenya dan menghitung jalur yang paling efisien untuk pena dan kertas. (eHow, Inc)
Perajah terutama digunakan dalam gambar teknik dan aplikasi CAD, dimana perajah memiliki kelebihan dapat bekerja pada kertas berukuran sangat besar sambil tetap mempertahankan resolusi tinggi. (reference.com)
