I've got a pair of dead StyleWriters on my hands. Both turned on the last time I powered them up (2008) but now appear to be completely dead.
StyleWriter #1 is a StyleWriter I. I've had this printer for 20 years (purchased new in 1992) and it's never given me any trouble until today. When I turn it on, the lights come on, but the typical noise the printer makes is not present. The error and power light then turn on. I do hear a very quiet noise, as though the printer is trying to do something, but that's about it. The ink cartridge belt does not move.
StyleWriter #2 is a StyleWriter II. This was my friend's printer until five years ago, when he gave it to me as he was downsizing. It always worked fine for him although I didn't really play with it much after he gave it to me (although it did work when I powered it up last). Plain and simple, this one won't turn on now.
Any ideas?
