How do I destroy data stored in the printer?

Hi,

During last moving my HP 110 printer got damaged, the LCD screen fell off. I want to get rid of the printer, but not before I make sure data stored is not accesible. I noticed the posting about removing the motherboard. Would that be enough (with the provision that I destroy the mother board after removing it)?

Thanks

hello,

removing the motherboard is normaly enough . this is were the cache is..

You can also remove all the PCB's you find:)

overwriting the firmware is also ok. but i think you will not sell the printer again? :)

Kind regards,

kevin

A shotgun blast or two pretty well insures that it's non-recoverable. But I'm from Texas.
