I found an interesting printer today. It is an SR2000, produced by
Sears Roebuck & Company, or at least it has their name on it. According
to it's test printout, the date stamp on it is 9/25/86. What makes the
printer interesting is that it is a dual-interface model, with both a
standard centronics interface, as well as what appears to be the 6pin
mini-din for the Commodore 8bit serial interface. Were there any other
interfaces that used that connector that it might be? I've found
replacement ribbons for it on the web, but no spec info. It's a dot
matrix printer with between 7 and 9 pins, and cost me a total of $4 and
works great.
