You are bidding on a vintage Commodore MPS803 printer for Commodore computers and perhaps others.
This compact serial printer was made for use with Commodore computers. It is serial number XH1112019, made in Japan. It's in nice shape cosmetically (see photos), but I was not able to test it fully because the ribbon is all dried out and I lack suitable software. However, when the printer is turned on it runs through its self-test, sending the carriage back and forth ...and positioning it in the center. The manual paper feed also works, advancing the paper one line for each press of the feed button.
I have been collecting and restoring vintage computers for a long time. Please see my other auctions for more vintage computing items, especially vintage Macs.
TERMS & CONDITIONSI don't have a lot of silly rules for buyers: Pay for your item and I'll send it you. I've been a buyer and a seller on eBay for more than 20 years and have a near perfect feedback record. I'll trust you and you can trust me to do right.Please use the eBay shipping calculator to figure your shipping cost. Inside the USA several choices are offered, so pick the one that is best for you. This item will be fully insured against shipping damage. I'm sorry it costs so much to ship, but it weighs about 8 pounds packed. FREE LOCAL PICKUP is available in Bend, Oregon.
This printer has not been fully tested and is sold as-is for parts or repair with no returns or refunds.
