Wouldn?t you know it, the same day I decide to order a ribbon and some paper for my HP
82905B (aka Epson MX80) printer, the AC line filter cap (C1 on the MFIL board), expelled
its magic smoke rather impressively. After some cleanup, the printer has been banished to
the garage until the smell diminishes. It appears to be a 250 V, 0.1 ?F X type. What
manufacturers have good reliability for this application, in your opinion?
That?s a common item on Tandy power supplies so I?ve replaced a lot of these. I?ve used
this replacement numerous times with great success.
