This device is a printer interface for the Apple IIc, and was produced by Orange Micro Inc. I am missing the power adapter. I am hoping someone here may recognize this in their own collection and have the proper power adapter. If so, could you please post the volts / amps needed for the device?

I do not have a Grappler IIc but I do have the Grappler C/Mac/GS. While not the same they may be similar enough to help you. This forum software does not allow me to add attached photos in a reply and I do not have the photos posted anywhere to link to. For the Grappler C/Mac/GS it is "Input: 120V AC 60Hz 6W - Output: 9V DC 200mA

If you would like you can message me with your e-mail address and I will send the images to you.

Here is a link to what the unit looks like.

Hope that helps.

Zan,

With the specs akochera gave you, you should be able to go up to JameCo Electronics and get a power supply for a few $.

Other way around. I gave the specs to akochera, but you are right, should not be hard to get. Even an "adjustable" unit that comes with different tips and a number of output settings would likely have the right combo.

power supply for the Grappler C

I have the C/GS/Mac.

Were you ever able to confirm the power needed and the polarity?

I am about to test my Grappler floppy disc on 5-1/4" and hopefully it still works.

Do you still have your software?
