⚡🖨️ HP 32V Printer Adapter
(Single Output • +32V 1560 mA • Flat Purple 3‑Hole Plug)
This AC adapter delivers a single regulated 32V DC output through a flat purple 3‑hole connector. It’s one of HP’s most widely used power bricks for compact DeskJet, OfficeJet, and Photosmart printers. While visually similar to gray‑tip dual‑rail adapters, it supplies only one voltage rail and is not interchangeable with dual‑output models.

- 🔁 Not interchangeable with dual‑rail gray‑tip (32V/16V) or green‑tip (32V/15V) adapters
⚠️ Things to Watch Out For
- 📉 Connector is visually similar to dual‑rail gray‑tip bricks — always check the label
- 🔌 Not compatible with printers that require 16V or dual‑voltage input
- 🧯 Using a lower‑power brick (e.g., 0957‑2094) may cause startup faults
- 🧪 Always confirm the printer’s underside label (32V input only) before plugging in
🛠️ Quick Tips for Beginners
- 🧭 Look for “0957‑2271” on the adapter label to confirm match
- 🔌 Use only with printers that accept the flat purple 3‑hole plug
- 🧪 If printer won’t power on, inspect plug holes for bent contacts
- 🧯 Label adapters clearly to avoid mix‑ups with HP’s gray, green, or barrel‑style bricks
- 🧵 Universal purple‑tip adapter for HP’s 32V single‑rail ecosystem
