A self-checking high-speed printer
Earl E. Masterson, Abraham Pressman · 1954
As soon as large-scale digital computers made large amounts of data an easy thing to handle, considerable talk arose about the need for high-speed printers. Of the two general classifications of computer problems, that is scientific and business, the former does not usually make anywhere near the demands on printing requirements that the latter does. Moreover, the appearance of the printed matter for scientific purposes does not need to be of nearly so high a quality as required by business problems.
