Part numbers
As there is only one model, the M13, this page will be listing the different part numbers.
1378192[1]
This part number is specific to a keyboard made by Lexmark. It features a split spacebar. The right split spacebar is supposed to be backspace (I think needs to be verified).
13H6705
This unit is made both by Maxi Switch, and by Lexmark and uses a black case.
Maxi Switch FCC ID: D7J1378190, Fru No: 13H6710
Lexmark FCC ID: IYL1378190, Fru No: 13H6705
Keycaps are pad printed.[2]
06H4173[3]
Made by Unicomp, industrial case.
66G8363[4]
Beige Japanese model made in the USA, with a form factor loosely resembling an M2.
82G3281[5]
Made by Lexmark, Beige color scheme. FCC ID: IYL1378190
92G7461[6]
This keyboard seems to be a quite "normal" M13. It was made by Lexmark. It features a Beige colour scheme, that does mean that the keycaps legends are made by dye-sublimation.
