Wanted: Mindware MW100

[diskman]

Necro bump.

I just picked one of these up off Ebay for $30 (with the manual and power supply). Also found a source for the ribbons and ordered 3. I'll post some pics when it shows up.

Meanwhile here's the ebay photo

Hey! Can you PLEASE scan the manual? I have had this printer since 1984ish and I never had a manual. Just some hand-written notes. Also, where did order ribbons from?

There is an MW-100 on eBay today out of Germany. Looks like possibly the same table photo as in mrtinb's post

The K1 site has a picture:
