Thanks Ed. I've been down that path already as well as fairly extensive,
in-depth web searching.  The closest I've gotten is a maint manual for
the 73x series which is sufficiently different than the 72x series as
to not apply.

I'm pretty sure I need to find one in someone's file drawer or on their
bookshelf.

It is!  On both machines!

I've also got several model 745, which are the smaller briefcase sized
(as opposed to suitcase sized!)  models and those are working A-OK too.
