For some reason, even though these are the newer model of Flexowriter,
they seem less common than the older ones. I have several (3 I think)
of these Flexowriters as well. I don't think any of mine are in
working condition, considering they all came from The Black Hole where
everything was pretty dirty. I haven't tried to power on all of the
units that I have, but I have applied power to one or two of them and
so far no joy.
Again, docs are always good, considering I might have some repairs to
do :).

I received a tip about a Flexowriter Selectadata
system available
for rescue in southeast Wisconsin.
Well, so much for model numbers over the phone! I received two
pictures of the units:

Considerably newer than that Bitsavers flyer; more Mad Men than
The Man In the Grey Flannel Suit. She says she has docs and a roll
of pink paper tape.
