i had a real life encounter with a real life wanna be dwight shrute.
so i am a selling champion on a well known selling site. im currently trying to sell an old f*x machine (looks kind of dirty when written like that). i no nothing about it since it wasn't mine in the first place, so, obviously i didn't put any detail. just the name, and function (it f*xes).
anyway, someone was potentially interested in it. here is the convo (one sided)...shortened in case of a potential search for this conversation, because you know that dwight would do that. :)
#1
Regarding the above, what type of ink does it use /
require. If something other than one of those
'carbon'-type roll cartridges (which is not the kind
of f*x unit that i'm looking for), can you please
supply your machine's specific model number
so i can research its specs?

Thanks for your response. Web-search / due diligence
states that one of the predominant concerns with this
model is its eventual failure to consistently pick up
paper -- this is a common problem and the cost of a replacement pickup roller
can be just as expensive as your asking price,
so think that i'll take a pass on this model.

#3 - re: to another f*x of ours :)
Thx again for your quick reply. Web-reviews
are MUCH more favorable, i.e.,
better-than-average / 3-4 stars. Aside from the fact
that they all state that functionality completely
shuts down sans any warning once the ink tanks dry out
(has this been your experience? -- if so, no biggie as
i'll just be certain to keep an extra cartridge handy)
it appears that this will work for its intended
purpose. That being, solely as an infrequently-used

purpose. That being, solely as an infrequently-used
machine, sometimes copier, i.e., NOT hooked up to
a PC. So... if you don't mind my testing it out prior
to purchase, please reply with how to contact you,
where i can see this unit, what's a good time, etc.

This stated, i.e., no ink, will take a pass. i've
learned the hard way not to take any more chances on
buying used tech equipment w/o first testing the item.
