| 1984 Apple Scribe Printer scored for 99 cents | |
| Posted by: krye on 2012-02-11 16:21:26 I managed to score this 1984 Apple Scribe Printer on eBay for 99 cents. The guy was pretty local, so shipping was only $11 bucks.  It was in pretty bad shape when I got it. Very, very yellow. I took the whole thing apart and after a few retr0brite sessions, it looked as good as new.  Here's some before and after shots.   _1.jpg)  I hooked it up to my //c and gave it a go. My ribbon tore and I had to tape it back together, but at least it works.  I did a whole write up on the restoration process on my site if anyone wants to check it out: Apple Scribe Restoration | |
