Post by: Vigo on December 01, 2010, 01:52:58 pm: I would recognize that adaptor anywhere. :scared That adaptor is used off of the very crappy old lexmark printer I can't seem to get rid of. Thankfully, I am finally going to send that thing to the gave in a week as I have ordered my christmas present for myself this year, a Canon Pixma MX870 ;D

I was laughing at how tiny the hand was in comparison to the photo, thinking it was a bad photoshop job. turns out the printer is a 3000 cubic inch beast. Time to clean off a little extra desk space.

Name that power connector.

Had you not closely photographed the part and model number, this would've lasted longer.

It's black, has two prongs where it plugs into the wall, and has a little plug on the end of a wire.
