Each work station has a display station (a display module, a keyboard module, and an electronics module) and a diskette unit for reading and recording information on data diskettes. Documents are printed on an attached IBM Printwheel Printer capable of playing out one page of a document while a typist is working on another page. The printer is also capable of roducing proportionately spaced type, as well as'10, 12, and 15 pitch.' In 10 pitch, up to 60 characters per second are primed in high quality bidirectional printing. With an additional hardware feature, up to three work stations can share one printer. The Sheep. -Feed Paper Handler is attached to the Printer and is capable of sheet -feeding paper of various sizes and weights into the printer and stacking paper in printed sequence. The IBM Displaywriter System allows the operator to perform at drafting speed; highlights misspelled words; allows correction, revision, and pagination of document to be performed in a swift, efficient manner resulting in a high quality, neat, and error -free end product. The Community Development Division proposes to utilize one printer, one work station, and one operator to be used for drafting Division's paperwork.. The Division also proposes to add one work station to the - main work station, utilizing the one printer, for all revision and correction of the Division's documents. One 60 characters per second printer with the sheet -feed attachment, two work stations each equipped with Textpack-4.and one.equipped with Logicalc software totals $19,099. Broken down into'the 60 month government timepayment plan, the first year cost totals $7336.80. The 24 month lease plan totals $10,440 for the first year. RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development Division staff recommends the purchase of one 60 characters per second printer with tree sheet -feed attachment, two work stations, both equipped with TextpackT4 and one equipped with Logicalc software. FUNDING: $17,000 has been funded for automotive capital outlay for the current fiscal year. Vehicle transfers to the Community. Development Division basically uncommitted the funds as approved. Community Development proposes to transfer.$17,000(from 004-207-524-66.42) for this purchase. A deficit of $2,099 will be funded by transferring that amount into the capital outlay expense account for office furniture and equipment (004-20.4-515-66.41) from the operating expense account for outside printing (004-205-515-34.72).
