In addition to the complete ASCII character set, it can also print all Commodore graphic characters strike-out and negative printing is also possible.įor operation there is a mechanical hand-wheel on the left side of the printer for manual paper loading, a membrane switch for step-by-step automatic feed and a lever for paper tension.

The printer is capable of graphics, so it can print graphics as well as text.

The MPS-803 has the serial IEC interface, which can be set to address 4 or 5. It was not developed and built by Commodore itself, but by Brother, who produced an almost identical Centronics printer, the M-1009. The printer supports bidirectional printing.

The MPS-803 could not produce dropped tails on characters, this was only made possible later by software tricks. The print resolution corresponds to a 6 × 7 matrix at 10 characters per inch, the printing speed is 60 characters per second. With the tractor attachment TU-803 (Tractor Unit) it can also use continuous paper. In contrast to the MPS-801, the MPS-801 printer can use standard single sheets. It was delivered by Commodore in two versions, one in typical brown and one for the 264 series in black.

Among others, we’ve seen another Commodore get the Python treatment, as well as an Apple capable of printing in full colour. This hangs out of the top of the printer as it follows the carriage, but for now it keeps the device working.ĭot-matrix printers are a favourite for our readership. Of course, he had no replacement for the flexible ribbon, so he made a replacement with a bundle of long lengths of flexible hook-up wire. On dismantling the head it became apparent that the wires had detached themselves from the solenoids, so he very carefully reattached new wires and reassembled the unit. Behind each of those pins was a solenoid, and after finding a crack in the flexible ribbon to the head he discovered that some of the solenoids were open-circuit. Sadly it didn’t live up to the dot-matrix reputation for reliability in that it didn’t work, some of its pins weren’t moving, so he set to on its repair. bought an old dot-matrix printer, a Commodore MPS 803. At their best they could deliver a surprising level of quality, but their sound once heard is not forgotten, because it was extremely LOUD. They are not unlike a typewriter with the type bars behind the ink ribbon replaced by a row of metal pins controlled by solenoids, each pin being capable of printing a single pixel. Dot matrix printers are the dinosaurs that won’t go extinct.
