    Lexmark/IBM Wheelwriter 3000 power supply

    now stop it. I know it's obsolete ... it was obsolete 20yrs ago.

    I've got a customer with a dozen of these Wheelwriters, and two have blown the power supply. Does anybody have a new or used power supply in their partsroom or graveyard? It's part#: 6788-001 or 1434518.

    It's used on many different models including the 15, 50, 3000, and probably many others. Not the same as the Wheelwriter 3. It looks like this:

    Help anyone? =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              I found a few whole typewriters on eBay, not too expensive. So far that's the only path forward. =^..^=

                  Just following up on this one:

                  I did not get any responses from this thread, but my customer has been buying used and rebuild WheelWriters from a dealer in Philadelphia. That dealer was able to provide two rebuilt power supplies, which solved that issue. The second unit had additional issues with the carriage, solved by solvent and oil. =^..^=
