In the later half of the 20th century, with the rise of the home PC, there were available an increasing number of electronic typewriters that included a port for interfacing with a computer. Either directly, as in using a direct connection between the computer and the typewriter, or through an intermediate device. (Such as the messenger module)

I'm interested in learning more about typewriters with such configurations, and who uses them.

I recognize that to most people who have adquate modern printers at their disposal, this is more hassle than it is worth. Indeed, a typewriter hooked up to a computer often becomes little more than a daisy wheel printer with extra functionality.

And in case anyone does not believe me, it is in fact possible to make a typewriter cooperate with a modern PC running Windows.
