PSTricks can do this -- if you have a PostScript printer. There are about 10 point symbols to choose from. You can also connect the points with lines or interpolated curves. The next version will have nice high-level macros for axes. PSTricks is available from the /pub directory at Princeton.EDU, and other archives.
