    Curious what solutions AxiDraw users have employed when they want to write on multiple surfaces: e.g. if they have 100+ greeting cards, or are trying to “write” (plot) a multi-page letter.

    Are there any automated solutions that will roll/whisk away one writing surface and introduce another one? Or is the only realistic methodology at present to wait around and manually remove the old surface and introduce a new one?

    The most common solutions are to have a human replace the document or an easel full of clipped documents. You can fit quite a few greeting cards side by side on some of our larger plot-area machines.

    There are automated solutions. Some are scrappy (like an inkjet placed in front of each AxiDraw to print a blank page in front of it), some are expensive (like a robot arm to move the paper), some are full custom, and some are using off-the-shelf paper handling equipment.
