Diablo 620 diasy-wheel impact printer needs home

I have a Diablo 620 daisy-wheel impact printer available to anyone
who would like it.

This printer was carefully restored by the folks at Printerworks in
Hayward, California in 1988 and was lightly used for about a year
before being put in storage. It looks to be in excellent shape.

It has its matching cable which can be configured as a serial RS-232
or parallel Centronics interface. It is capable of proportional
spacing and uses a film ribbon for a nice letter quality impression.
Unfortunately, I do not have software drivers for it, so you'd need
to do some research. (Many word processing programs of the era
included appropriate Diablo drivers.)

I have a number of different font daisy wheels around here somewhere
and should be able to find them to go with the printer.

I am located close to Boston and would much prefer having it picked
up than trying to properly pack it for shipping. However, I do have
plenty of bubble wrap and might be able to find a big enough box
to send it via UPS if someone wants to pay for the shipping.

Please email me if your are interested.

Regards,
Will
