Based on a PM clarification that it is a Personal Laserwriter NTR, power down and disconnect the printer cable temporarily. Then set the ten position push button switch to zero, which specifies that the three ports may then be used as follows (according to Apple all three may be used at the...

The cleaning/airing suggestions of the earlier posters may be sufficient for the items less contaminated mainly on the outside by falling smoke particles. But for items with cooling fans inside (if the smoker was nearby) you will likely need to disassemble them and wipe down the areas where tar...

Not having an Apple IIc handy but wanting the experience I went to http://www.calormen.com/Applesoft/index.htm and tried out the Applesoft Basic simulator that runs in Javascript. As others had said, no pre dimensioning/declaration of string variables necessary. Unless I am operating this...

My prior post may go too far and create arrays of string variables, so also try the simpler DIM A$(1), B$(1), C$(1) or even simpler DIM A$, B$, C$ I saw somewhere that Applesoft Basic went to dynamic garbage collection for variable length strings (and if so length was automatic up to some...

Just a guess...you may have to declare a$ first specifying a non zero maximum string length in bytes. Try Dim A$(64), B$(64), C$(255) at the start of the program and see if that gives you some string variables of non zero length to play with.

Try using a$ where you were using a.

Use the blue cable. That the Classic boots with the blue cable is a good sign, likely a missing driver causing non recognition. There is no termination switch on the Zip 100 plus. Just leave the second female bulkhead passthru connector unused for initial debug. When the Iomega driver is...

If you have the proper Zip 100 plus blue Iomega cable connect the end marked AutoDetect to the Autodetect male DB25 bulkhead connector, and the other end with the Iomega logo to your Mac. If you are using improvised cabling possibly with gender converters make sure all 25 pins and also shield...

My old notes on that say the internal cells are .67x1.97 inches, 10 size A NiMH connected in a series parallel configuration for 6V at the terminals. Compare the results for a Google search on Powerbook 170 battery to the solder tabbed size A cell costs at...

14. There are six aluminum electrolytic capacitors visible on the Sony "2MB" floppy drive I happen to have just inspected. Does your particular drive have any? Perhaps one or more of them have reached end of life.

Some 256Kx1 DRAMs that can be looked up at http://www.datasheets.org.uk/ appear at the end of this post. The trailing -NN access time speed designator should not be included in the part number lookup as its meaning will appear as an explanatory note within the base part number datasheet. The...

Hmmm, usually silicone is not nearly as slippery as mineral oil/lithium grease like that at http://www.cyclesuk.com/337-518016 The silicone stuff is usually better reserved for contact corrosion protection and to keep rubber from sticking. It might be good for plastics, for example if the...

But perhaps the plastic microswitch sensor shaft on the front edge located switch to the immediate left of the rightmost one is stuck down from crud.

The home page of the original link I supplied has a multipage Telnet listing. http://www.telnetbbsguide.com/

So was there anything like a treasure box in the secret storage area above the optical drive? [:)] ]'>

If the replacement caps were bad or wired polarity reversed, both power on and power off circuits would be behaving badly, and if the system was jumpstarted then turning it off could be a problem. Not to accuse you of anything, but this might be a good time to remind readers that on aluminum...

That might work. Hovering with ground effect is a lot easier than flying. I took the weight data from one of the earlier links that I posted above and applied an area rule scaling (similar wing loading) for the thrust the saucer airfoil would have to generate for vertical lift flight. The...
