2124.0. "Frying Tonight" by SUBURB::NORRISI () Wed Jan 18 1989 09:35

    Just a word of warning to all new printer leads:
    
    	If you are just about to buy a printer lead for your Amiga beware
    	of buying one from a department store which has not been checked
    	by the shop assistant on their Amigas. Someone I know bought
        one from a well-know shop in London. It was all well until he
    	turned he turned his Amiga on with his newly-bought printer
    	connected - He managed to fry his printers chips as one of the
    	lines down the printer cable was not Amiga-compatible, just
    	0ff-The-Shelf. 
    	So make sure before you buy a Printer Cable that works with your 
    	Amiga without ruining your printer.
    
    
    
    			-Ian
    
    P.S	My friend would like to say that he's selling his printer -
    	One Owner, doesn't work but looks good next to your Amiga
    	(If your Amiga matches a slightly charred, (very) off-white
    	colour.)
