Hi
Things seem to have drifted a little. It is the wire combination
that I'm interested in. I'm aware that the connector was there
before the printer.
It looks like to the best of knowledge, the 101 may have been
the first. What type of printer was that?
ISTR that there was also a 100 ?
The 101 was BIG. It was HEAVY. Substantially bigger and heavier than
Laserjet -. It was fast. It was LOUD!
But, it would fit into the back of a Civic hatchback.
I had one sitting around for years. I took it to some of the John Craig
Computer Swaps in San Jose, and siome of the "Northwest" ones in San
Mateo. I could not sell it. Not for $100; not for $50; not for $20
I gave it to City College Of San Francisco in 1983? when I was doing some
part-time teaching there. They stated a value of $1200! so I got a LOT
more off of my taxes than I could have gotten from a sale.
IF they have stopped using it by now, then it was NOT because it was worn
out.
