A recent message from Steve Jacobson raised some
interesting points.
Yes, the capusule paper is expensive, a $1 or more
per sheet. The d3eveloper of the Reprotronics machine says he
is developing and coming out with cheaper paper,
but we haven't seen it yet.
 
There is a german hot pen that can draw lines etc.
on the capsule paper. It heats up.
I wonder if it would be possible to attach this pen
to a regular comercial plotter and use a standard system.
I also don't know how expensive plotters are.
