I have a Epson L365 Inktank Printer that has been going well for the last 7 years and a bit but the last few months it was a bit iffy turning on (not always turning on).
After figuring out how to take the covers off and methodically starting to test it (with limited electronics knowledge) I found that the power supply measures at 42V (as stated on it's label) but the moment I connect it to the tiny mainboard with everything else disconnected the voltage drops very low (maybe a couple of Volts), which leads me to think there is a short on the mainboard, but it kind of looks in perfect condition (cant see any broken/popped components or shorts or burns).
Anyone know where and if I can find a replacement mainboard for this printer or if it's even worthwhile trying to repair?
