Salute To A Grand Printer

2003-09-18 by Clayton Jones

Hello All,

Yesterday, after 11 years of flawless service, I retired my trusty
Panasonic 1124i dot-matrix printer.  This printer has been such a
faithful workhorse that I feel it deserves a public acknowledgement of
it's many years of service.

It has printed miles of paper and countless labels for clients'
mailing lists over the years.  It never slipped a belt or required
service of any kind, other than new ribbons.  I've kept it on line the
last few years just for printing source code on fanfold paper, and it
still works perfectly today.  However, all things must pass, and it
has been retired to make room for a shiny new Epson 2200.

Farewell old friend, thank you for many years of faithful service.

Regards,
Clayton
