[OPLINLIST] Working Printronix P5205B floor standing printer, built into noise abatement cabinet, free to whomever will come get it

[Steve Owley]

These large-format, versatile dot-matrix printers are used in many libraries for running reports, printing checks, that sort of thing.   This one is free to the first library that contacts me and will agree come out here and pick it up between October 1 and October 16.  Nothing produces gigantic columnar reports on the cheap like this printer!  Usage has been far below the 100% duty cycle for which it is designed, so it should be in excellent working order despite its age. 285 pounds, quite large, so don't come in a car and don't come alone.  As-is, no warranty.

Here is the rundown:

Printronix P5205B floor standing cabinet - parallel, serial, and what looks like an RJ45 network port though we never networked it so I cannot swear to its functionality.  Below are official specs, but the printer is given away as-is so we cannot be responsible if this printer differs from any of them.  I will throw in the parallel port cable attached to it. :)
