I got a printer and a tape interface for my 4-bit BASIC computer/pocket calculator Sharp PC-1248. I love this little toy because it has far more RAM than most users would ever need - almost 8K is available to the user. The printer is quick and tiny, too. The computer runs 150 hours from two CR2032, and the printer is powered by four AA batteries with unknown yet runtime.

Here's the device loading the program and printing the image. Sorry it's very blurry, I'm too excited to share it ASAP :D

If you're wondering why I needed a printer for this computer: well, first, it's cool, and second, the computer can record the programs to a tape without this device, but can't load them. I tried to build my own version of the cassette tape interface for it from scraps a couple of weeks ago, but it didn't work for some reason. Probably the signal was too quiet.
