Inverter for mobile printing

Can anyone recommend a good inverter that can be used to print docs from the car?

I have 2 small workload printers I'd like to use with the portable inverter I end up with. HP P1505 and / or Brother HL 2270DW.

I'm trying to research online; reeling from all the info. Technology is not my strong suit.

Anyone had experience or can make a recommendation?

Much obliged in advance :o)

Hey Tish

One thing you'll need to know in advance is the start-up wattage of the printer, which you can find in the specs of the printer manual.
It's important to have that, as one inverter does not fit all, and in order to start up the printer, the max wattage of the printer must not exceed the capability of the inverter.
It is highly recommended to use a "pure sine" inverter for electronic devices to protect the device from electrical surges.

Thank you John! I just did my first thread search

That there is one handy feature. As a relatively new "poster" I haven't had the opportunity to use some of the neat features.

Thanks again and the very best to you and yours this Holiday Season.
