Why? I regard them as one of the more interesting
dot-matrix printers of
the time. Not quite a Sanders, but higher resolution than it should be.
Well, I'm not a "collector" myself and unfortunately there doesn't seem
to
be enough interest in printers & terminals to justify the time, trouble and
expense of properly packing & shipping them.

I think so. I certain;y have the Letterwriter 210
programmer's mamuals,
etc (and the control codes are much the same -- heck, the design is much
the same). I know I have the LA100 printset as well (which for some odd
reason doesn't include a schrmatic of the PSU).
True enough; the PSU had its own separate printset (B-TC-H7837-0-1,
which I don't have either), although there is a block diagram and functional
description in the Tech manual.

This always upsets me. A computer is a lot more than just the CPU!.
Perhaps since I am more interested in hardware, I can find as much
interest in a terminal or a PSU than in the actual CPU.
