The CBM 1525 or MPS1200 ?.

Certainly not the CBM 1525, which predates any Amiga by a considerable margin and was intended for the 8 bit line of Commodores.

I used a Star LC24/10 with my A500. 24 pins dot matrix printers were very popular in that day and age, more so than the 9 pins variants which were already losing ground.

Tbh, I hardly ever saw a Commodore printer back then. Everyone owning a Commodore machine, whether it was a C64/128 or any Amiga was using a non-Commodore printer.

Star (9 & 24 pins), NEC (24 pins) and Epson (9 & 24 pins) were by far the most popular. I still have an Epson LQ570+ I use every now and then...
