I've got an old HP 7221C plotter that I've recently upgraded to HP-GL
capability with a ROM change.  The manual for the upgrade states that
the printer is now compatible with the Model 7220.

I'd like to try to use this printer with a Macintosh CPU and Claris's
"MacPlot" plotter drivers.  Unfortunately, the Model 7220 isn't one of
the plotters listed in Claris's list of supported plotters.  My hope
is that it's sufficiently close to one of the supported HP plotters that
I can make it work.

Here's the Claris list of supported HP plotters:
	7440A ColorPro
	7475A
	7550A
	7570A DraftPro
	7580B
	7585B
	7586B
	7595A Draftmaster I
	7596A Draftmaster II

Does anyone know whether the 7220 is anything like any one of these plotters?
Thanks!
