Phil, Thank you for the email. In the last week (on the swap list) I had two responses from people who had IIG printers. One in the middle of nowhere Montana, the other in Washington state... Neither were enthusiastic about the prospect of shipping. It is not looking good. One positive is that several people did respond indicating they had IIG main boards which is why I expanded my original search to any II series.
I am not too concerned about shipping costs but I do worry about shipping damage. Let's give it until next week sometime to see if anybody local pops up.
