My printer (a Citizen GSX-230 dot matrix) is second hand. I got it from

is? My wife (b 1983) wondered whether it was older than she is, which
got me wondering. Heck, it might be. I have Linux, if that matters.

try google and/or wiki...
It may not be as old as you think. I was surprise that dot matrix
prints were still being sold in those areas that require multipart form.
