The ATARI computer
owner can select from a
range of printers. The
ATARI 1O27™Letter-
Quality Printer is a low-
cost, easy-to-use device
that prints on regular typ-
ing paper. It produces
fully formed characters
like the type from an
electric typewriter. The
ATARI 1O25™80-Column
(dot-matrix) Printer is
more expensive but
faster than the ATARI
1027, and uses typing
paper or computer
paper. The ATARI 1025
typeface is composed of
tiny dots. For artwork or
charts and graphs, the
ATARI 1O20™40-column
Color Printer/ Plotter
may be just the tool you
need. You can draw or
"plot" vibrant color
graphics with the
printer's four-color pens,
or print different sizes of
text.
To correspond with a
French pen pal or write a
report in Spanish, you
can generate interna-
tional characters with
these printers. Refer to
your printer owner's
guide for instructions.
With an ATARI
MODEM
. and a telephone, you
have access to computer
databases, transportation
and entertainment sche-
dules, and specialized in-
formation systems such
as COMPUSERVE INFOR-
MATION SERVICE* and
