RE: 82162a HP-IL thermal printer success
When I bought my original CV I did not buy a printer, that decision came a little later.

I remember reading the Educalc catalog and deciding that the IL printer was worth the extra money because 1) it potentially saved port space if one was considering other HP-IL devices and 2) it had the ability to print bar codes with the Plotter module. I also remember that I was deciding between the infrared printer and the IL printer, maybe by then HP was no longer making the 82045A. I still print barcode occasionally with the printer for small(ish) programs. I don't believe I knew about the FMT command when I made the buying decision.

I get the impression that there were many more 82162As produced from the population of listings on TAS of the various printers.
