Glenn,
It looks like a RO-32 or RO-33. ( RO= Receive Only )
The model 32 used a 5 bit Bardot code
The model 33 used ASCII.
If it was used with a computer it is likely a model 33
Duane
I don't know any to way to tell the difference without opening it up and
counting the code bars that set up what character is printed.
