ABSTRACT:
A computer driven plotter pen includes a turret from which a any one of plurality of different types of pens may be selected. When the plotter determines that a pen has become spent, the spent pen is automatically removed by a pen transfer carriage from the pen turret and discarded. The transfer carriage then removes a fresh replacement pen of like type to the spent discarded pen from a magazine thereof, and installs the replacement pen in the turret which in turn installs it in the plotter pen carriage. No operator involvement is required.
