    Default Printers with no power

    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

    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.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
