Its print quality is quite inferior but the consumables (ie ribbon) is
cheap so its great for printing things like a FAQ from a newsgroup or
online docs for software, etc.  I have very old IW I that I use
occasionally with my PB180 to print out code that I've written or long
documentation whose quality needn't be first rate.  My printer is over 10
yrs old now and still going strong so don't write these things off yet.
