If you had several of those big printers the music got even better.
You'd think you could hear the voices in several songs.  I wish I
had tape recorded some of those.  The IBM guys would run these as
test jobs on occasion when doing printer maint.

There was also the fun of setting a radio in specific places on the
main control panel and listen to the music it played.  Somewhat
better than the printer banging away as you'd get actual tones to
play.
