Description

In 1981, kanji (Chinese character) processing could only be done with large systems, and there was a growing need to realize such processing on small and mid-size systems. In that year, Hitachi began shipments of the H-8172 printer, with a printing speed of 2730line/min. This printer had a software interface compatible with high-end models, and improved cost performance.
