Great find. This has got to be one of the earliest
apple printers...I've
seen it is some early apple ads. Did thermal printer actually have heads? I
thought the trick was in the paper.

Also the horrid IBM quietwriter series I, II and III. If the head
wear is excessive also worn brake pincher, the ribbon will snap on
these IBM quietwriter series. Prints out laser-quality text and
graphics especially on III. The speed I spell " SLOW" and table is
quake hazard for anything sitting on it where that printer is placed.
:-)
Yesterday I saw 8 color text IBM dot matix wide printer w/ parallel
interface. Anything special about it and driver available on most
OSes? What about finding 4 color ink ribbon cartridges?
