I just got a cpomplete IIGS system off eBay that came with an
Imagewriter II. Everything works great except the printer. I get a
flashing red error light that the manual says is either a "cover off"
error, or the print mechanism is jammed. cartridge slides across its
track and centers itself on power up, and I can manually slide the
cartridge fully from left to right, so I don't think jamming is the
problem.
Is there a way to fool the cover sensor? Where is the cover sensor?
If this helps there was a small (tictac sized) magnet stuck to the
cartridge motor. I thought maybe that was part of the cover sensor
that came loose??
Thanks,
sc
