Introduced on the 31th of October 1988, discontinued the 1st March 1996

Introduced as a successor to the successful Coconut series. The calculator is software compliant with the HP-41C but has no extension ports. It has an infra red LED to communicate with a printer.

This HP-42S is the most complete and sought-after model of the Pioneer series. Its code name shows the close relationship with the HP-32S (Code name: Leonardo).
