Would like to get a better letter quality printer for my 800XL
than our 1027. My wife likes Atariwriter software and is
interested in a Panasonic T-30 word processor/typewriter which
has a computer interface capability.
Is it possible to use this Panasonic with our current system?
If so, what else would we need?

Most word processors,
including Atari Writer come with a
handlers for commonly used
printers. Most also provide a
utility to allow you to make one if
your printer is not supported. So
the answer to your question is a
qualified yes. As for what it will
take to connect your printer? You
will probably need an PR: or other
interface. These run between $50
and $100. If you are on an ST, you
may not need anything but a cable.
Check the manual that came with
your Printer.
