Anybody know what type of chip is used by this printer as the upgrade to the buffer? Most places want ~$60 for it, but I have a feeling it's really only about a $10 32K SRAM chip. While I'm at it, where exactly does it go? I don't plan on popping the case open till I've got the chip in my hands... Please reply via mail as I don't read this group too regularly. Thanks! -- Gibberish Amiga 3000 owner/fanatic is spoken Contact don@brahms.udel.edu for more information. here. DISCLAIMER: It's all YOUR fault.

DISCLAIMER: It's all YOUR fault. 1 answer, Radio Shack sells the same printer, and the '91 computer catalog says that you can order its 32k chip for ~$30. I would like to know the chip type though, so I could order it for the $10-$20 its worth wholesale. I would also welcome instructions on opening the case for the installation - failed miserably on my dry run (incurably curious). Please post the info or email it to me (too) at: Internet domain: pegram@griffin.uvm.edu UUCP: ....!uvm-gen!pegram thanks, Bob Pegram
