DOCS NEEDED: NEC Spinwriter ELF360 printer



I own two large NEC Spinwriters (7710, 7715), which are heavy-duty fast
(55cps) thimble-style letter-quality printers from the early 80's era.

Today, in a thrift shop, I bought a NEC Spinwriter ELF 360 printer. I
bought it because one of the paper clamps on the tractor feeder on my
present printers is broken, and I want to replace it.  I cleaned up the
printer;  when I activated the self-test, it printed perfectly!   It has
both RS-232 and Centronix sockets, so I presume that it can take either
serial or parallel input signals.  Because it types so perfectly, I will
use it rather than dismantle and discard it.

DOCS NEEDED:  If anyone has the manual for this model (NEC spinwriter
ELF 360), I will be happy to pay for photocopying the manual and for the
postage costs for shipping it.  It has eight DIP switches on a back panel,
so without the manual I have no idea how to set them.
