Anet A8 issue with PSU

3D Printing
1

Hello.
I’m pretty new to 3D printing and I purchased an Anet A8 printer for home projects.
Recently, when I turned it on, there was a spark in the power supply unit and since then, the printer won’t turn on.
I’m guessing that the fuse has blown, but I can’t be sure, so I’m here to confirm. Did anybody else come across a similar problem? Please help me out.

Thank you!

You’ll need to check the output voltage from the psu. Check the fuse too. If the supply looks bust, try another 12v supply with the Anet.

The psu that comes with them are not very good either way. I went with a atx power supply. It allows me to power the printer, a pie running octoprint, and lights for a camera.
