So I was picking up some clothes at the local thrift shop and found a neat little find in the electronics section. An old HP LaserJet 6L printer. The price on it was $2.99 so I looked inside and saw the cartridge so right there I got 2$, and the cable came with it, so I know I get some pins. Now the question is, what else is in there? I'm hoping to get to it in the next couple days then I'll post some pics.
I haven't taken one of these apart yet, so it'll be a nice learning experience.
If its 3 bucks and you can get 2 for the cartridges, then one buck isn't that much of a risk you can get a couple bucks profit out of it and if you never taken one apart, then there you go, you're paying for a learning experience and making two to three dollars or more in profit while doing so.
So go for it.

there are boards(s) and the cartridges and the rest goes into the shred pile after taking any motors/

laser printers usually have a high grade board/network card int them, sometimes gold mylar also
