I am looking for a WIDE-Carriage impact printer that has the capability of
printing on multi-part fanfold forms (5 pages thick).  It must accept up to
12" wide paper (including perforations).

It also needs to meet the definition below in regards to continuous fed
paper (thanks to Andrew Longyear for the definition).

As for the form feed mode, the paper (with the perforated edges) is fed in
from the back where it attaches to the tractor unit.  It is then lined up
with the front of the roller as in manual mode.  From there it will just
print page after page.  If you are printing just single pages in the form
feed mode, the printer can be directed to stop at the top of the subsequent
form and the first form page can be torn off without upsetting the
alignment for the subsequent form.

Or, the paper can be fed from the bottom where it attaches to the tractor
unit.  From there everything else in the previous paragraph applies.

I don't care if the printer is 9 pin, 24 pin, or color.  As long as it
meets the other requirements.

Jay
