Changing out floppy drive
Just FYI for all of those like me that are using used Tajima machines with floppy drives. I learned today that the floppy drives are no longer being replaced by Hirsch so if your machines require a floppy disk, better think about usb capabilities. For instance, if your disk drive works now but dies, you can no longer reload your software for the machine. But if you replace it before it dies, you still have the ability to put the floppy drive back on temporarily to reload software, should you have any machine issues. No one seems to know if the machine software can be loaded onto a travel drive and then uploaded to the machine by way of usb....just thinking ahead!
