Bill,

All Imagewriters are serial. The Apple DMP and SilentType printers that preceeded it were parallel.




Bruce, are you sure you didn't get an Apple Scribe? It's a serial interface thermal transfer printer that was usually bundled with the //c. It's very light weight.

Here's a pic of a Scribe -

Imagewriters are much heavier.


The man who gave it to me says an uncle bought
it back in
1980-81 so he thinks it was never upgraded. It
is probably
a version zero. Motherboard was never upgraded.

Bruce, probably 1984 - when the IIc was introduced.
