Yesterday, I found a new publication at my favorite electronic parts
retailer, a detailed hardware manual for the ImageWriter-2!!
It is published by Howard W. Sams & Company in their series
"COMPUTERFACTS - Technical Service Data"
as publication CP27 09005 and is titled:
APPLE ImageWriter-II, Model A9M0310 Printer
ISBN: 0-672-09005-8 (but I doubt your library will buy it)
and contains sections with:
- complete schematics
- preliminary service checks
- troubleshooting tips
- easy-read waveforms
- replacement parts lists
- semiconductor cross-reference
these manuals are for *REAL* hardware types and contain no easy answers
for the rest of us. I believe that the price is ~$20 (a reasonable price
for such manuals) and well worth it for those that need it and know how
to use it.
I looked, but did not see a similar publication for other hardware in the
Macintosh line.
"To order, or for more information see your Sams Distributor, or
telephone 800-428-SAMS"
if you have questions regarding the book that I can look up,
please send me Email and I'll try to answer.
Disclaimers: I have no connections with anyone related to the book.
