 | Text and/or other creative content from this version of Universal Character Set feature was copied or moved into IBM hammer printers with this edit on 18:53, 28 November 2022. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. |
@Fram:, @Chatul: - the feature may not be (and probably isn't) notable enough for a standalone article, but it might be interesting enough to discuss in the article about the printer for which that's a feature.
Perhaps the right thing to do is move this discussion of that feature to IBM 1403 and make this a redirect to the section containing that discussion. Guy Harris (talk) 21:01, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- UCS was a feature for a bunch of printers, not just the 1403. If the material is to be moved to the 1403 article then it should be replicated for, e.g., 3211. Perhaps a better home would be IBM hammer printers. --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 22:19, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- OK, and then expand it to mention the other printers with the feature, with references if available. Guy Harris (talk) 23:00, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- I believe that every printer currently[a] mentioned in IBM hammer printers supported UCS except the 1403 Model 1 and the 3270 printers.[b] --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 15:38, 25 November 2022 (UTC) --Revised 18:52, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
Decided to boldly merge it into IBM hammer printers since the discussion above seems to have stalled and I thought it would be a bummer if this short albeit interesting tidbit of history got removed. Feel free to whack me if I missed any details. DigitalIceAge (talk) 19:01, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
