Hej Benny!

I believe both the printers and corresponding form fed paper can still be found.  At the moment I lack a 24-pin interface (aka parallel port) but I do have one machine with two 9-pin interfaces (aka serial port).  I think the widest dot matrix printer I've used in the past used 24 inch wide form fed paper.  I don't recall the interface it used but it was very, very fast.  I can still hear the high pitch noise that it made.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
