Subject: Dumb Question
Folks,
Recently we were talking about a business automation device that used paper
tape for storage; typically someone would enter data like an address on
paper tape, then it would read the paper tape back through to print the
address on an envelope for billing. It was a specific device/name and it was
very 60s/"Mad Men" in appearance. I can't remember the name. Someone found
one in an attic in MN or something.
Thanks!
Flexowriter with Selectdata paper tape option?
