- Has anyone ever had a problem with their ImageWriter Printer-head?
- One pin from the 9-pin head has broken off, and I was wondering if
- it would be easy enough to replace it. The computer store on campus
- has told me that it will cost about $100 to replace/fix it. Seems too much
- for my liking, considering I could purchase a Stylewriter for about $300.00.
-
- I have a feeling the replacing a pin is impossible to do, and I'm sure that I would
- be better off trying to find a used printer-head. Does anybody have an idea
- where one could get a hold of such a printerhead for an ImageWriterII at a very
- reasonable price?
-
- Any response is appreciated
-
- Cheers,
