Texas Instruments introduced in 1988 with the TI-5160 II a heavy-duty desktop printer / display calculators as successor of the TI-5160. It continues the design language of the TI-5150 and TI-5130.

The printed circuit board (PCB) of the TI-5160 II doesn't mention its manufacturer, but the label on the backside of the calculator gives two hints:

bulletThe Date code with the leading "Z" identifies Zeny Corporation in 
Taiwan, ROC as the contract manufacturer of the TI-5160 II.
bulletThe UL-File number E42662 of the calculator reveals it as a product
manufactured by Toshiba TEC Corp. 

Don't miss the database of all known UL-File numbers found on Texas Instruments calculators.

In 1989 the TI-5160 II was renamed TI-5162, we couldn't find any differences between these two calculators so far.
