power cord question

[JimB131]

Just bought HP 8125e printer. Can I use my old HP Office Jet Pro 6968 power cord with my new 8125e?  I will have to move heavy furniture to unplug old power cord and install the new power cord.

@JimB131,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

Because the HP OfficeJet Pro 8125e and the OfficeJet Pro 6968 both use a standard detachable AC power cord (IEC 60320 C7, also called a “figure-8” connector).

• If your old cord is in good condition (no fraying, kinks, or exposed wires), you can safely use it with your new 8125e.

• Both printers are auto-sensing for input voltage (100–240V, 50/60 Hz), so the cord itself is interchangeable.

• The only time you’d need to swap cords is if the old one were damaged or if HP had supplied a region-specific cord (e.g., EU vs. US plug).

So yes, you can keep the old cord plugged in and just connect it to the new printer without moving heavy furniture!
