... with a rubberband and a cap from a pen.

Plastic fatigue cought up with our Linotype 1200 scanner. 2 taps, marked with circles broke off. For the moment it works just fine.

But a more permanent solution is appriciated, if u got any bright ideas

After a while the rubberband slipped a bit so we tightent it with the cap.
