If the plotter is big enough to hold the whole piece of paper (or move the paper through on its own) there is no registration to worry about, and flatbed and large-format plotters do that.
Flatbed ones are like this: https://www.flickr.com/photos/anachrocomputer/5183771083 https://www.flickr.com/photos/anachrocomputer/5183771083, https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/control-vintage-roland-pen-plotter/ https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/control-vintage-roland-pen-...
Large format ones are mostly used for vinyl cutting nowadays, but they look like something like this: https://www.signmaster.co.uk/hardware_item/graphtec-ce7000-series-cutting-plotter/ https://www.signmaster.co.uk/hardware_item/graphtec-ce7000-s...
