Re: OS copyright

I'll jump in here... It's not the developer of the jpeg compression scheme that's trying to enforce the patent, it's a holding company that acquired the rights to a piece of the algorithm in a purchase of a another company. IIRC, the patent expires in (literally) a couple months. Read all ab

Re: Yet Another unknown Card

Supermac 1152. 7" card, right? Made for a 6100. Andrew Grebneff in NZ would be interested in purchasing it, I'll bet. He has a couple Supermac 20" monitors, a 6100 and no card. > --- dhill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>It appears to be a NUBUS card. It has the angle >>bracket. It Say Ver.

Sure. Use Apple Printer Utility. I have a copy sitting stuffed on my desktop. I'll p-mail it. Jim Gail Vass wrote: > I was reading the Personal LaserWriter LS has a life > of making 150,000 copies . > > Is there any way I can find out how many copies my > machines has made to date? > >

Re: Mac IIci Floppy Problem

Regarding the floppy drive problem: I'd still bet on a funky floppy drive, "new" or not. Your specified symptoms sound mechanical, not electricial/electronic. If you can, try the drive in another machine and see if the problem follows the drive. If it does, it's the drive. If it doesn't, th

Re: IIsi still having problems

Going to GCC's site doesn't give us any printers that have a SCSI interface. USB, TCP/IP, serial, parallel, localtalk, but no SCSI. I suspect that we need a serial connection here. Model name would help as GCC doesn't list by number. Elite 12? Elite 21? Elite XL21? Jim

Re: IIsi still having problems

Not that I'm aware of, but I haven't been looking for one... Most that I've come across are high end stuff. BTW, a quick Google turned up the following Developer note: Q Our printer uses SCSI as one of its interfaces and operates normally with all interfaces except SCSI. When the printer is conn

Re: Getting a IIsi up and going

Open up the case. Right in the center of the motherboard you'll see a battery about the same diameter as a double A flashlight battery but half as long. Probably purple. That is a 3.6v lithium cell and is available from many list vendors or your local Radio Shack. It's in a standard slip in ho
