#genAI cranks out an endless stream of ugly, soulless, near-identical fliers, signs, and ads; used everywhere by the uncaring masses who have no design talent and no concern for aesthetics.
we had the same thing in the 80s. it was called The Print Shop.

New font: NearlyQ
A rendering of a 9-pin “Near Letter Quality” dot matrix font. Derived from the character ROM of an Amstrad DMP3160 printer. somebody, somewhere, is probably still producing invoices like this I started work on this in 2017, revisited it in late 2018, forgot about it for a few years and then finally completed it in a couple of days in July 2026.

A question for retro tech bros:
My employer is still using an OKI dot matrix printer, model Microline 620, and an Epson dot matrix printer, model FX-890.
The OKI printer is not working, and the FX-890 will only print some screens, but not all.
It's an older Windows system, but I'm not sure which one, might be XPS.
In the "available printer list" all of the printer statuses are "idle", nothing in que.
What can be done to get Windows communicating again with the dot matrix printers?
TIA.

@gmc For my #amstradcpc I had the #epson lx-86 #dotmatrix printer with 9 needles.
Had much fun with trying out many of the ESC-p codes
```
print chr$(27) + "W"
```
to turn double width printing on or off. -

Praeception Mono
Microtexture-based artwork I made a while back. I drew a 4x4 pixel dot template by hand and then tiled before applying it to the base image to get that microtexture.

Behold the revolutionary #Chafa, where 21st-century #tech meets the artistic flair of a 1980s dot matrix printer. 🎨✨ Get ready to squint in awe at "reasonable approximations" of images, because who needs high-res when you have ANSI X3.64? 🙄🤦♂️
