Discussion Winterizing your printer

Hello all,

I'm a first time owner of HP L25500 as the Winter months are fast approaching I was wondering how to you guys keep your printers nice and warm ? Will the inks freeze? As for now my equipment is being operated and stored in an attached garage and its not the warmest. I'm going to check into getting one of those torpedo heater from Home depot. Any tips? Thanks in advance...

This is for the ink. The printer is fine in -25 range... As to whether it'll freeze or not, I don't know. But it'd probably affect the quality of the ink. I'd get a decent room heater, and leave it on... It'll be expensive in electricity, but then so is a ruined printer.
