As the title say... You visit a shopping site and you say...

My starter for 10:

The Espon LQ300+II dot matrix printer!

Edit: That said, we still have about a dozen FX3500s in the company for printing from the old UNIX system - we should be getting rid of them this year...

The Hindustan Ambassador - a Morris Oxford - has been built in India since 1958.

My Star LC-10 is still plugged in and working. I bought a new ribbon for it from Staples not so long ago.

You need impact printers for using with copy paper. There's still quite a lot of forms like that, including Sage payslips.

Yep, our pay slips are still printed on an FX3500. The multi-form for invoices and delivery notes etc. are switching to laser with the new system, being printed 2 or 3 times... :? It is certainly quicker and quieter.
