[Coco] More related stuff found, looking for a good home

Related question:

Is there even a source for paper, pens and  ink for these (now really old) printers?  I imagine the only source is leftover stock at this point but maybe someone knows an answer here.

My first Coco was a Coco2 that included a CGP-115 printer and cassette recorder.  That printer was slow and resulted in "blocky" printouts.  The nifty part is that the look of those printouts is fashionable again (yay 8 bit graphic revival) so I just wonder if it is even possible to get the original printers working again.

Feel free to repeat this question for floppies, fan feed paper, etc...  And does anyone even make blank cassettes anymore?

John

Subject: [Coco] More related stuff found, looking for a good home

Hi all, a while back I posted about a friend in the Lombard, IL area that found a couple of TRS-80 cassette recorders, and a CGP-115 Color Graphics Printer, and was looking for a good home for them.
He got back to me and mentioned that he also found some 6801 Motorola boards that he would also like to put up for adoption. He wasn't sure about them, but said they were similar to the one being auctioned, referenced in the link below.
These items are available to a good home. Pick up only.
