I recently purchased a Centronics PagePrinter 8 which is in excellent condition
except it is missing two critical components: the toner cartridge, and the
"personality" cartridge.  Centronics was bought out by Genicom, which has
since stopped supporting the printer.  While the toner cartridges are still
available the "personality" cartridge which provides the interface to the 
computer is not readily available.  I was wondering if anyone had either of 
the cartridges that they'd be willing to part with (perhaps from a non-working
unit).  The personality cartridge is located in one or both of the two
bracketed slots in the top rear of the printer.

If you can help me, please send me mail (dan@w3eax.umd.edu).
