One of the photos shows some of the print on the paper on the platten.  Hover over the photo for a zoom-in view.  It's not dot matrix, unless it's 300 DPI, which is unlikely for a cloth-ribbon printer.  The letter forms look very much like classic Teletype letter forms, which suggests some kind of impact printing.  Chain printer?  Rubber band printer?  MITE style printer?  The photos make me think the print matrices are behind the page, with the hammer in front.  All of the technologies I just mentioned can be made to work that way.
