IBM model 71 printer

During some cleaning of the attic I found an old (and forgotten) project of mine. It is a sort of printer, build around the back half of a IBM model 71 typewriter. I guess I was a little intrigued about it. It looks like it was modified by a company of some sort (not IBM), and what they did basically was to cut off the keyboard section of the typewriter about half an inch from the cover which can be lifted. To be able to use the mechanism, they added a bar with solenoids which pull the little levers as well as to operate the clutch, advance one position and do a mechanical CR/LF. Also an paper roll holder (for teletype paper rolls) was added as well as a electrical switch & cover plate for being able to close the front. When I got it, it missed 3 solenoid for some of the little levers, finding a replacement should be possible, although they will be different I guess it should be possible to make some sort of interface for it to let is work as a simple printer. I was just wondering which company did these modifications. Any idea's? Ed BTW it runs a little slow, nothing a careful lube job will fix :) -- Dit is een HTML vrije email / This is an HTML free email. Zeg NEE tegen de 'slimme' meter.
