Most printers have a feature where they'll go into some sort of a self-test 
mode if you hold down some button while turning the power on.  There aren't 
that many buttons on most of these...

The c= printers probably *won't* work with any non-c= machine,  they're 
serial-bus connected,  right?

The Juki 6100 is a daisywheel,  does anybody consider these worth anything 
these days?  I have a couple of them in storage that I've been considering 
scrapping out,  *BIG* ones.  One is a daisywheel (I forget the make/model) 
and the other a NEC Spinwriter (uses a "thimble" rather than a daisywheel but 
it's the same basic idea).

These worth anything to anybody?
