That sounds exactly like the one.
The ones for WPS systems were, IIRC, tabletop printers with a
largish (smalll lunchbox-sized) external PSU...
I have this very combo in my storage unit, lonely and looking for a
home. It received it with my WP-78, so I was told it was a companion
for that system. The cabinet has a cut-out that fits the Diablo
daisywheel printer and a recognizably DEC PSU inside, as you say. Unfortunately, it sat in a garage for 20+ years and
the printer is
badly rusted and who-knows-what-else.
:-(
The cabinet is probably salvageable but not of much
use,
given the custom hole in the top.
Could always bolt another piece of wood on it, I suppose....
Or install a good Diablo 630 in it.
Anyone want it? (in Chicago area.)
I'm not in the area, but I have a VT78 and no printer cabinet. How
rusty is it and how badly do you want to get it out?
