Sunday, September 19, 2004 I have two IIgs's in service, each with an ImageWriter-II printer, and mainly running AWks 5.1.
Fortunately, I have several Img-II's, as I've already replaced two of them. But I'm running out of replacements that work OK. :-( Both problem Img-II's exhibit the same malfunction, and I wonder if other Apple2List'ers have experienced (and solved) this problem: The carriage that carries the printhead and ink cartridge "SLAMS" hard against the left-stop, and the printer freezes. It happens, not all the time, but often enough to ruin many print jobs. I've just about decided printer-driver software is not the cause, as I've replaced AppleWorks SEG.PR several times. It must be a hardware malfunction - maybe a mechanical sensor out of adjustment somewhere.(?) Any ideas?
