Rain cooled things down a little so I wandered to the barn. Second time was charmed I DID find what I was looking for. An Alps, only an MD1000 though. I've joined the two Yahoo groups, Alps and Alps decal.

Man this thing is filthy. Not used in ten years, last two stored in a dry barn, All the ribbons were out of sockets,

But this thing fired right up, and pulled a surprisingly good test print. Not sure if all the ribbons are in correct place.


Silly thing had SCSI interface for Mac we had, But after an hour on the net found it pops off and parallel underneath.

All this takes an old guy several hours to fumble through. But maybe I or someone can see what kinda copy we can get from it. May be an option. Somebody on CL locally is selling Alps gold foil for ten bucks, maybe can get my brother or the redhead to chase him down. In this heat not an option for me.
