Posted by: sstaylor on 2023-12-16 13:49:20 This came up about a month ago: ImageWriter Ribbon Cartridge Problems I have a few ImageWriter II's and I finally decided to get around to getting one of them up and running for a project I'm working on. The ImageWriter itself is in good shape, but of course, the cartridge that was in it didn't seem to be working. So I decided to swap it out for a new old stock... 68kmla.org TLDR: NOS is a crapshoot; you may get one that's just fine but there are others that are disintegrating. Links were provided for some New New Stock which work just fine.
