Selling an old (circa 1970s) DEC printer. It is an LA180 DECPrinter I. This has a port that is supposed to make it usable with a PC though I've had no luck. Have owned it for a few months but have no use for it. Someone with a bit of technical expertise might be able to make this a fully-functioning PC compatible printer. Otherwise it used to be used with non-clones (PDPs, Wangs, perhaps the VAX though it pre-dates the VAX) and likely works with them now. Never used by me. Might be useful to somebody who needs this older kind of printer for whatever reason. Physically, this is a very large (and heavy) printer, hence I will deliver this only to places within a 100 mile radius of Arlington MA (MIT, Harvard, etc, are OK as well). It uses the wide kind of computer paper; a few sheets partially written-on included. Manual included also, including circuit diagrams that might help anyone who wants to fiddle with the electronics of this printer internally. Must buy as-is; no returns please (it's just too big to transport conveniently a lot). Asking an even $75.00 (no best offers please) for this printer, and that includes the terrible amount of work I'll have to do to deliver this to you. Anyone within easy car access of Arlington, MA, who pays the full price gets it. Will deliver locally or over a certain distance, even over the NH border a little way. If interested then e-mail to me soon since I really do want to sell this printer now. Thanks to anyone interested. -Fred Baker 7/3/93; 2:37 PM EDT * * * * * * * * * *
