[GreenKeys] Fate of M40 printers...

[Kenneth Gartland]

Hi all!

Yes, it is a rather sad commentary on the situation of the Model40 type carrier
belts...

I worked on many of these machines around 1986 to 88, and even then,
the type carrier
belts were routinely failing...

I always kept several of the more common type carrier belts w/pallets,
so to effect
a quick change in the field...

Not so much fun when you have to start from scratch and change all the
pallets into a new belt...

Perhaps some company cud make these belts, but the cost is likely
to be astronomical!

It is too bad such nice units are now "Orphaned" on account of a problem
such as this!

Tks for listening!
