Remember the old style printers with ribbons?
I'm looking for one if someone has one lying around in the loft.
Thanks.

I'm curious what you want it for?

I've got one of the early colour dot matrix printers in my collection, not willing to move it on, but if you want to borrow it for some reason your welcome - got loads of ribbons for it but they will all be dry by now.

To be honest, just to print stuff out on. Loved the noise etc about them! smile Can still get them cheap on ebay. smile

Some of these are still used in places, I'm sure billy has one of these at work, I'll find out.

Yeah, I remember they still use continuous for printing receipts and stuff in all kinds of car shops. wink
