   [From the operation manual for the CI-300 Dot
	Matrix Line Printer, made in Japan]

  The excellent output machine of MODEL  CI-300  as
extraordinary  DOT  MATRIX  LINE  PRINTER, built in
two  MICRO-PROCESSORs  as   well   as   EAROM,   is
featured   by   permitting  wonderful  co-existence
such  as;  'high   quality   against   low   cost',
'diversified   functions   with   compact  design',
'flexibility in accessibleness  and  durability  of
approx.      2000,000,000     Dot/Head',     'being
sophisticated  in  mechanism  but  possibly   agile
operating     under    noises    being    extremely
suppressed' etc.

  And as a matter of course, the final goal is just
simply to  help  achieve  'super shuttle diplomacy'
between  cool  data,   perhaps   earned   by   HOST
COMPUTER, and warm heart of human being.
