Well I have a couple of HP-85s and HP-9915s (the embedded version of
the HP-85). I also have an HP-9825A which also uses the same type
of tape. However, if the tape was not recorded on a similar machine
it will probably not be readable by my machines.
I don't know about TU58
yes its the same,
but the TU58 uses preformatted cartridges (can't
format cartridges on its own). While the cartridges are physically
identical to the HP ones, there is no data compatibility.
