Wanted: TRS-80 PC-2 Pocket Computer Plotter pens

Is it that the gears once installed are damages by de-installing them? I can see how that could be.

I'm not being a smartass; I'm just fairly ignorant about the mechanical aspects of moving parts. Now, if you'd said "look up *foo* in the CRC", I'd just go down to my bookshelf and pull out my copy.
