Hi Richard

Sorry, No idea about the suitability of the o rings for the printer...

Would the ones you have left fit into the HP41 card reader?

I don't have a HP-41 (yet) and no card reader for it, so can't say exactly...

From someone listing his o-rongs on Ebay it might fit though:

Hi Richard

Would it maybe be possible to buy some of your spare O rings? I recently did a handicraft style of repair on an HP41 card reader, but unfortunately with doubtful success...

If so, please contact me under my email address. Thanks in advance!

Regards, Stephan
