IBM Printer 1967
The IBM 1401 processor, 1402 card reader and 1403 printer were components of the all-transistorized system. The 1403 line printer, shown here (1967) could print 600 lines of text per minute and could skip blank lines at up to 75 inches/second. Although most commonly used by small businesses, the IBM 1401 was also frequently used at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as an off-line peripheral controller for large scientific computers such as the IBM 7090.
