A lot of them are getting on in years and getting kinda cranky.  There has 
been a decline in their business due to copy machines for small to medium 
volume, and overseas competition.  But some of them would gladly 
help newcomers learn how to operate a press.


Oh.  Maybe you meant computer printers.
There are little ones, such as the Centronics 101 (RS232, or a parallel 
data interface using a 36 pin Blue-ribbon connector), that will fit on a 
sturdy table.   Recommend the 101A; 9x7 matrix is nicer than 5x7

Some of the new fancy computer printers even have lower case!


Although excruciatingly slow (14.8 CPS, and do NOT exceed that!), the I/O 
Selectric is versatile. In many offices, newbies will be welcomed by 
somebody putting in the APL typeball.
