Dang, it doesn't work. I guess that's why it was free :/

When it powers on, it stays in the "Self-Test Initializing..." mode
forever. Also, several of the horizontal raster lines on the LCD display
are out. I'm going to repair the cable and see if this changes anything.

If anyone has a service manual or a half-broken Network ScanJet 5 they'd
like to get rid of then let me know.
