The VT52 printer used a very odd system. A spiral wire on a drum sat on
one side of the paper and the other a sraight edge.
So you could scan a line at a time. The paper must have been treated
with something or other.
A great project for somebody to try and make. Very simple mechanics, One
turn of the drum = advance one scan line.
