Probably not been using an HP inkjet then; it would have jammed at least twice before the cartridges it came with ran out, and after the second set and five more jams some flimsy but essential part would have snapped, rendering the printer useless before even 9000 names had been printed.

Probably a Printronix belt printer that someone kept feeding boxes of greenbar, and fresh ink ribbons.
