    This is an HP LaserJet 4 printer from the early 1990s (first is stock photo). A few nice boards and some heavy gold RAM inside.

    It's great that you have time for printers. I'm sitting on about 13 pallets of them right now. Hoping China's National Sword thing doesn't mess up my plans. I'd ship them now, but in order to break even or maybe make a penny a pound, I have to include them in a FTL.

    I didn't see the low grade power supply board in your photo. If your shipping pallets, these can be profitable.

    Hope it works out for you and sooner rather than later! I should've taken the power board out too. Totally forgot. Taken off the side panels and popping those boards off I've found takes very little time and they're almost always some kind of mid-grade. So is worth the time for me. I pop the cartridges out too. Haven't shipped any out yet but gonna try one of the cartridge buyers and see what the return is like.

    I'm thinking of trying Dazz Cycle for cartridges. One thing interesting with them, they test stuff sent by individuals, but not schools, non profits, etc.. I may talk with my wife about setting something up for her daycare.
