Yeah, the IIci Dev Note doesn't mention Sync on Green.None of them use sync on green.
The IIci had slightly more normal video than the really old 640*480 colour cards.

StyleWriter report: we have lost the patient. Initially it powered on but showed a blinking orange error light. After about 30 seconds it went dark, and couldn't be revived. Let's all observe a moment of silence in its memory.If you need to find a home for the StyleWriter please let me know...it's the last piece I need for my first system recreation.
Yep this will work just fine. For pretty much any inkjet cartridge actually. Used to do it on my Canon A3 photo printer which took 8 (count em!) separate cartridges. Or was it 6. A lot anywayIt might be possible to drill holes in the cartridges, refill them with modern ink refill, and put a little rubber stopper in the hole.
You will need to soak the heads in IPA though.
As I'm only looking for a StyleWriter as a display piece I would still be happy to provide a home for this fallen machineStyleWriter report: we have lost the patient.

E173FP
The slightly larger 1908FP also works well. Seems like the 1x08 monitors were produced in the 2006-2008 timeframe, since the one I had was originally purchased with my father's Dell Latitude D830 by the original owner in late 2007. Used it between 2013 and a few weeks ago on various Macs.On the subject of LCD monitors for vintage macs, I really like the Dell 170x 4:3 montiors, such as the Dell1708FP pictures here. I used to work at a local college that was throwing these away on a regular basis(!) in favor of 16:9 aspect ratio monitors, so I was able to grab a small collection of them!
Kinda wish I grabbed more of them now......

There was also a big box of adapters. Most of them are unknown to me, and have an RJ-11 phone plug on one side, and 9-pin or 25-pin connector on the other side. Anyone know what these are? Some other strange adapters too.
Yes! I love these displays, I have two of them that I use as well. They are gold, they work with almost everything, haven't run into anything yet that didn't work with them so far.On the subject of LCD monitors for vintage macs, I really like the Dell 170x 4:3 montiors, such as the Dell1708FP pictures here.
