the shortage of simple machines: otherwise why did the old machines last for many, many years ?

This is true. It's an actual thing in product development called Planned Obsolescence. Watch "the Story of Stuff".

As far as I know(as far as I ever found), that is the only supplier of it. The printer is so far out of date and production, that nothing new is ever going to be made for it, and they will, over time, be extinct. They are already obsolete.

The machine still works perfectly. I suggest you contact the manufacturer for needed parts.

We've had our system for about 4 years. It worked for maybe two and is now out of commission. Have somefriends whose quit also and talked to another couple who have trouble with theirs as well. Repairs are costly &its very disappointing. A high price for an inferior machine.

I'm not sure entirely, but the computer will complain if they are too old (planned obsolescence). They have lasted for anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 years has been my experience.

My laserjet is 7+ years old and my pc is just a couple of years old. It worked fantastic for me, worth the try for the money.

doubt it would be profitable b/c of all the components that would require changes. Filters, constant cleaning (special tablets), etc probably would last, nonetheless not designed for commercial use.

I know that I have already answered the question, but I thought I would add something. My first machine was purchased by my ex-wife...16 years ago. my current lady and I just moved into our home in the country and we found that old spice rack in some boxes, the batteries still has some power left and she fell in love with it, so we purchase 2 more to fill out our spice rack needs

Sorry, I really don't know. I still have my manual that came with the machine. I know how to do everything I use it for so I don't have to look at the manual any more. It would be worth a try though.

I could not verify that, our use has always been limited to a few hours of need, and not for a machine as presented. It has worked for our specific needs very well.

simple old style adding machine ,works well. unlike many units that are set up a printing calculators .their buttons are not in the same place. simple but helps eliminate errors.

this computer is 12-13 years old - it is super cool (wish apple still made this model) -but it is limited in the fast growing world of tech.-some have been updated - no wifi -

Brushless motors have more power. Also you don't have to replace the brushes when they ware out over time.

Old models use a few different standards. Maybe there's an old model it would work in, but it probably wouldn't be the ones you remember playing with as a kid with the big, floppy pictures. Though if you're willing to settle for something smaller, internet might have a way to convert it.

Sometimes manufacturers make minor changes to products that prevent the new models from being used with older products

Yes. Thats what I wanted to know. I just needed someone to tell me how many years I might expected to be using this thing and you gave me a good estimate. Thanks.
