Help for change voltage
Hello my friends
I live in iRan
And i have a hp 401
I have a hp 401 110 volt
But my country is 220 volt
Can someone help me to convert 110v to 220v ??

The fuser and power supply on these are fixed voltage, not SMPS parts. If you want to region convert a 110V printer to 220V you will need to swap both the fuser and power supply as those are regionalized. The rest of the printer is unaffected outside of some possible region locks on OEM toners if you do not use 3rd party supplies. I know HP dropped some of their region locking BS on some of the older HP 60 ink cartridges where the 901 used to be the EU part(?) but just made the 60 universal. So it may be less of an issue or a non issue. I've never seen a regional map on the OEM 80A OR 80X so the supplies could be unlocked. Which is not true with the DS machines so count yourself lucky if there's no chip/region lock.
Look for a power supply from an M401a or other ROW model (the same as the 401n most of the world has, but it lacks the option for LAN networking), and you will be fine, as the 401a power supply is the same as the others in terms of fit. For the fuser, if you have a plain 'n' model, the m401a fuser will also work for the same reason the 401a power supply works—it's also 220V.
If you have a DW/DNE, you may need to get the fuser built for these machines since it may be a part specially built for the duplexing printers. I have one I partially retired for a Lexmark and generally my understanding is it's the same fuser, but it's done though the back panel with additional gearing and maybe a different gearbox with factory coding enabling it. That said, I would double-check to see if there's a difference between the DW and DNE.

Hi @nick,
Do you still have this printer?
If so can you verify whether it has dual AC input voltage capability i.e 120V AC and 240V AC or only the one input voltage (either one), presumably dependent on where they're sold?
The specifications are a bit vague as to what it has, at least to me anyway.
" Power
110-volt input voltage: 110 to 127 VAC (+/- 10%), 50/60 Hz (+/- 2 Hz); 220-volt input voltage: 220 to 240 VAC (+/- 10%), 50/60 Hz (+/- 2 Hz)"
If only the one voltage option, would it require a new 240V control board (plus other 240V capable modules (fuser?) perhaps)? There doesn't seem to be a separate power board in the parts list that I found online.

@jayeff ill have to address what needs swapped later, but no. Power supply and fuser are linear.

@jayeff, AFAIK, I've never seen an 100-240V SMPS laser printer just because of how they fuse the toner to the paper. Even Lexmark uses fixed-voltage power supplies, and the fuser/power supply must be the same (e.g., 120V MS621 fuser + 120V power supply).
The toner regionalization may be an issue but the 80A and 80X are so commonly cloned/rebuilt with non-HP chips it's a non issue these days. China and the others aren't respecting ANY form of HP region locking - they just make the chip work amongst all regions.

It's probably just the way HP wrote the specifications.
If they sold the printer in countries where 240V AC was the supply voltage then the printer would have to work at that voltage, so most probably different parts are used, at least the power supply and the toner.
Cheers
