Well, no one of us will ever need 100, but 50 might consider two...

If initiatives to re-engineer HP-97 printer gears or to print one hundred or more manuals for a specific model come to fruition on this forum, there might just be enough interest to have a bunch of IL-cables produced that cost significantly less then US$ 50 a piece....

On the other hand, I don't yet have access to a 3D printer, but if the necessary description files could be downloaded, things like IL connectors might well be among the first things to try.

So there's two approaches which might be considered...

Thanks for discussing this...
