[GreenKeys] Printing Selectric

[Josh Bensadon]

Does anyone know if this is a Selectric?  It does not have any interface (it's a future project of mine to build one for it.)


The other picture is of the Olivetti ET 121 that's for sale if anyone wants a Daisy wheel typewriter with computer printing interface?

Working the last time I tried it.


Thanks

Josh Bensadon

When I was at TRW in the mid '70s, I had one of the "bastard"
golf balls. When our secretary went off to get coffee, I'd switch
balls on her machine.
They'd come back and the Selectric would type gibberish.
I was known as "The guy who could fix that."

Smirk, I did that for three years. Never got caught.
