I have purchased a couple of these e printers on eBay that came with cases like these. Maybe the cases were mistakenly matched with the printers?

As others have said, these printers definitely did not come with these, or any other cases. Many 97 (and possibly 91/92) owners used those machines as effectively permanent desktop calculators, freeing the case for use when the 41 "system" came out, more mobile and in many situations were used in labs, manufacturing, etc. where carrying the printer would be awkward without some kind of carry case.

I recall there were 3rd party cases for the 82143/82161/82162, but I would have to dig through EduCALC catalog pages to recall the specifics. I also saw several homemade 'cases', which were more like padded bags, and usually used to also carry the 41, HP-IL cables, power adapters, etc.
