• Verify the plotter's technical specifications confirm it as a drafting machine, not a general printer, with documentation like user manuals and CAD software compatibility

• Include FCC certification for electromagnetic compliance and ensure proper declaration of inkjet technology to avoid misclassification as office equipment
