HP-19C Repair Odysee

I agree, but it seems as if thermal printers of today do not apply a travelling printhead, but have a fixed printhead (as in PC-100 from TI). Even if the non-HP printhead fits, it is of course dubious if the existing flat cable would be useable or if it had to be joined with an original, or connected by means of soldering. Perhaps the Sharp connector could be used and connected to the HP PCB? If I stumble on a donor non-HP printhead, I will let you know.

Here are some of the cheapest I have found today:
