Hp F2180 Deskjet

Hi,

I got an HP F2180 on Ebay and the seller "proudly" forgot to include the power cable...but, luckly for me I have an old "all in one" power transformer that I can use. I just wonder if I can find a power scheme to adapt my plugger for the printer. The plug I should have is this one

 

undefined16 v, grey connector. What I really don't get is the three connection. Wich one is positive, negative etc? Is there somwhere a cable scheme to semplify things?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Thank you for the screenshots, but unfortunately, the information you're requesting is not available for me to answer due to the age of this printer. I recommend that you get the correct power connections for the printer.
