Printers with no power

[Aegis]

Hi,
I have a few surplus printers that I tested and a few of them will not power up at all. Just curious, do printers have internal fuses that can be checked? Or, is it usually a bad control board?

Thanks

Normally Bad control boards.. El-cheapo Printers only..

If they are inkjets then just toss them (note to self! Listen to your own advice). Time you get them working again you then have to waste time trying to unclog blocked jets without any real success.
