The DECwriter IV, also known as the LA38, is the last in a series of printing terminals by Digital Equipment Corporation, being introduced in 1982.

There are two versions, one with a keyboard and several switches, called the LA38, and one with just the printing assembly and less switches, designated LA34.

The DECwriter IV models ended the floorstanding design of the previous DECwriters and are tabletop models, about the size of a large typewriter.

The DECwriter IV was the last of DEC's printing terminals.

It was preceded by the DECwriter III in 1978.
