Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back in!

Plastics are firmly "meh", it's even missing the upper cover (the one with the clear bit.)  Don't know about the print head - it ATTEMPTED to print, and some printout did show up before it started the head-crash routine.

Hmm, that sounds like mine. Oh, well.

But if the print head works at all, I'd still be interested in that.

Now I just need to figure out how to take out the print head...

Wow, nice haul there. I have been looking for that multiscan 15 monitor for awhile now to no avail.

The print head on the ImageWriter sounds relatively easy to remove, apparently I need to take mine out and at least clean/lube it... it's printing but skipping lines here and there.

FWIW the Dead Mac Scrolls book has a LOT of ImageWriter troubleshooting stuff, probably would cover your head crash issue.  Uniserver and I scanned his book, PM me if you'd like a link to it

Service manuals for the LaserWriters and ImageBanger are out there on the web
