Default Re: Gould 1604 plotter

There is no reference to any pens are indication of where the pens are. I am thinking there must be something missing as there is no indication of any printing mechanism. I've removed all the covers and the print unit but still can't see any signs of pens. In the earlier machines did they use the same type of priint similar to the early pc printers which used a spark on the paper to print?
I've attached some photos.
