Portable office on the go! The Canon BN22 (BJ Notebook) printing laptop
Battery pack revived, printer head cleaned, cartridge refilled - I’m rarin’ to go! Editing and printing important documents on the subway. . IBM ThinkPad 555BJ
Featuring:
486SX/50MHz
8MB RAM, 170MB HDD
Greyscale 640x480 STN LCD
A nifty hand-held thumb-trackball mouse
And an integrated B/W inkjet printer!
It came with Windows (basics like Paint, Write, and Solitaire) plus MS Works
The NiCd battery pack was rejuvenated by opening the pack and applying several brief 10Amp shocks to each cell, when the voltage had settled to ~, it was allowed to charge via the computer to much success.
The printer mechanism was flushed with IPA then filled with fountain pen ink, the head scrubbed with acetone to do my best at unclogging (de-streaking) the prints.
