Print Reader MX2021( )/G was developed to punch teletype message tapes in a prescribed format by feeding and optically reading messages typed on a prescribed message-form; by looking up routing indicators for selected addresses, and by arranging preamble and suffix data into the prescribed output format. The study was broken down as follows: collect reading accuracy statistics to examine the accuracy of the Print Reader; assay the worth of the Print Reader's automatic addressing feature for placing routing indicators in the message tape; investigate the physical characteristics of the messages to determine the types of paper, typewriters, ribbons and format best suited to a Print Reader operation; determine processing speeds; and research the operational procedure.
