Email the company.

They may be able to email you a pdf of the document.

And to make life easier:

Its a very Old product and that would be just a Big waste of time, they do
not even list the Thermal
ribbons for it..


Actually, a big waste of time was trying to help you.

Companies often keep old manuals in case someone wants instructions some
years down the track.

Given that it would have been faster for you to email them and find out for
sure if they had a manual they could email you, than post a question here, I
wonder what your real motivation is.




And I wonder what yours is..


Just to criticize and of no help at all.



Panasonic here have PDF Manuals on there Web site even for old stuff, Casio does have some watch
manual you can dnload but not for 2 of the older LCD watches that I have..


Actually, when people don't mention any attempt they've made already,
it's impossible to tell whether they are lazy or have just forgotten
to mention that they've done searches.

Just yesterday, I got a Casio organizer that was made about 2000. I
bought it at a garage sale for $3.00. I came home, and immediately did
a search. Right away, I found a site that was about the device, and it
included a link to the Casio website where the manual is.

It is usually quite difficult to not find information on the internet about
older equipment. The more popular an item, the easier it is. Because not
only may the manufacturer put the information online, but third parties
will put up information because they have an interest in the product. Those
two hand me down digital cameras I have? I've got manuals off the web
that I found because I did searches. Often, even if you can't find
information specific to a piece of equipment, you can find information
about a similar unit, that is generally applicable to the piece you have.

When it is so easy to find information, if a poster doesn't want to be
called lazy it's up to them to mention that they've done searches.
