Doing some thinking and printing today.

#RetroComputing #ThePrintShop

TIL The Print Shop for Apple IIe supports the ImageWriter II color ribbon! 😍

Wonder if it will work to capture the output from Virtual ][ and redirect to my real ImageWriter II. Did The Print Shop ever support ImageWriter over AppleTalk?

#RetroComputing #VintageApple

Yes! I captured the output from the printer in Virtual ][ and then printed it to my ImageWriter II over AppleTalk with Netatalk’s pap. 😎

Although I had to change some of the line feeds to carriage returns to get it to work right:

s/0A/0D/g
s/0D0D/0A0D/g

Made a banner in The Print Shop for the swap meet this Saturday in NJ. Who else is going?

#RetroComputing

If anyone coming to the VCF Swap Meet in NJ this Saturday is interested in a Macintosh IIx or Mac Quadra 950, get in touch with me! They're big and heavy so I'll only bring if someone wants them.

Update: Swap meet was a success! Thanks to all that attended!
