I picked one up today. This one is marked
"Terminal Printer" and model
MH-4015+ but the FFC ID number says that
it's made by Shinwa and it
lappears to be the same as the CPB-136. It's a dot matrix printer and it
has SIX printheads in it!
Six printheads?!? Good grief Joe, how, where, & why do you come up with
all this stuff? And how on earth do you find the time to play with the
stuff once you have it? I still haven't found the time to check out all
the stuff you gave me six months ago . . . really, how do you do it?

Sounds like a Highspeed printer to me.

Persistance Glen, persistance. The printer came from my favorite scrap place. It's
in Melbourne, you need to go down there with me one day. I try to get down there about
every other week. Why? becuase it looked intersting and the price was right! I originally
went down there to get some ribbon cable headers. I got the printer, the headers and some
other goodies for about what it would have cost me to buy the headers alone around here.
Speaking of all that, is anyone familar with PSDoft from WSI? It's some kind of
program for designing logic circuits with WSI's Programable System Devices (PSDs). I
also picked up a NIB package of that.

New subject: Analog 8mm
Put simply:
Anybody have any horror stories about using digital
data 8mm tapes in a Camcorder?
My personal belief is that they are overbuilt, if anything.

A friend tried using the 8mm DAT tapes but for some reason, the quality
didn't seem as good as regular VHS tape. I didn't pursue it any further,
but it may have been the tapes themselves could have been the problem as
they were used.

I'd presume that they should work just fine, I've used 8MM vidtapes in an
emergency in my exabyte tape backup drive...
