Printing from Windows to a GPIB Plotter

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a GPIB printers or plotters in Windows? I have a HP GPIB plotter, and GPIB card. I want to 'print' to the plotter using any Windows program.

Hello-

Sure, it's probably possible, but it's likely quite different from an ordinary Windows printer. It's just necessary to send the proper commands. There might be an instrument driver available at ni.com/idnet.
