Yeah another term for this could be a word processor (like the old school ones that were kinda smart typewriters with floppy disks on the side).
But instead of outputting through built-in printer, it spits out the output to a minicomputer (I’m assuming at the time).
"Word processor" is a good term. Specifically, these were made so that reporters could quickly work up articles from on-site news locales, then send them in to the newspaper office.
