I have a Diconix 180si, with User Manual and Technical Reference manual. >I'm mainly looking for a DIP switch table (annoyingly, it won't produce >a config print - just a test page). I'd also love to find some details >on the control codes, emulations and character sets it supports. The 180si does not use DIP switches, so I can't help with that. The Tech Ref manual does have Command Code and Character Set info, however. The whole manual is a bit over 100 pages. I can scan it if you are interested. >Also - does anyone know what the material on the printhead capping >station is, or if they're still available? >It looks like a cardboard or blotting paper pad with a plastic backing >card. This one is soaked in ink and looks like it could do with being >replaced. I assume it's to stop the cartridge from drying out? The 180si uses one also. It "catches a spray of ink which the printer uses to clear the printhead cartridge before printing." A new pad is included in each printhead cartridge container. >I've put a HP 51604A (expired 2012!) cartridge in there, and it seems >happy enough. >Thanks, >-- >Phil. >classic...@philpem.me.uk >http://www.philpem.me.uk/ Bob
