impressive pace.

mode, followed by the
240 cps High-Speed
Draft, 200 cps

If you process
your information
over long distances,
the ML184 Turbo
can save you time and needless
additional expense. With its fast
RS-232C serial interface you can
boost productivity at a 19.2K
baud rate, and support XON/ -
XOFF and Ready/Busy protocols.
The printer has a small foot-
print that makes it ideal for use in
your system configuration. It also
offers the ultimate in ease-of-use,
with up-front control of type
size, print quality and other 
frequently used functions.
A “lockout” feature
prevents
abuse by 
disabling the
printer’s front 
panel pitch and
mode selectors.

edge in quality and 
reliability no competing
printer can claim. It’s

with years of innovation
and dependable service. And the
