Plotter MDG-1 (MDG-116), produced in Poland by Mera Poltik. Designed in cooperation with Istytut Systemów Sterowania (Katowice) in 1988. It is very close copy of Sharp CE-515P plotter. It uses limited set of DXY-GL command, known from Roland DXY-101 and DXY-800 plotters. Similar language uses the Sony PRN-C41 - but has worse parameters (worser resolution).

There was several versions of the plotter:

• 01 - Centronics

• 03 - RS-232C
• 04 - RS-232C
• 05 - Centronics and RS-232C
• 06 - Centronics and RS-232C

There are drivers (e.g. for Atari) and paint software for Timex FDD 3000 and PC (AutoCad for DOS).
