I'm hoping there are geeks out there venerable enough to remember
something about printing to a daisywheel. I just scored an IBM
Wheelwriter 10 Series II 6783 typewriter with parallel print option from
Freecycle.
There's nothing about printer codes in the manual, and seemingly nothing
on the net about controlling it. Dunno if it'll talk Diablo or Qume
codes, but even these seem to have almost entirely dropped from memory.
cheers,
Stewart
