Message-ID: <344@crystal.ARPA> Date: Tue, 12-Jun-84 22:55:48 EDT Article-I.D.: crystal.344 Posted: Tue Jun 12 22:55:48 1984 Date-Received: Wed, 13-Jun-84 06:58:31 EDT Organization: U of Wisconsin CS Dept Lines: 24 [ non-blank line ] I would like to buy a cheap dot-matrix printer for my C64, mainly for program listings and personal word processing. I don't care much for speed but want a dependable machine with a reasonably readable print and easy to find replacement parts ( such as ribbons ). I've considered Commodore's MPS-801, 1525 and 1526 but it seems one can get a better deal with a third party product. Maybe I'm wrong. Any suggestions, comments and advice from the more experienced people of the net would be greatly appreciated. Would anyone describe the mayor differences between the 1525 and 1526 ?. Please respond by mail, as usual, and if I consider the info. to be of general interest I'll post it to the net. Thanx in advance and happy computing. Bernardo Feijoo.
