I have a HP 4215 inkjet printer that is covered inside with black ink.  I do not want to turn it on and do more damage by the liquid zapping the main board. How can you clean up ink that has gotten into everything like this? Is this going to be impossible to fix?

Hello Marco!

You did the best decision not to turn on your printer for the meantime. The ink off course is going to be difficult to wipe and clean out from your printer. There are cleaning agents that we can use to clean your printer. You can only clean the farthest part of the printer that you can only reach. Do not dismantle the printer for us to avoid any damage in its part. Use also gloves to protect your hands. After cleaning the printer at least give it two to three hours to become dry. If this is an ink spill, check your cartridge and the printer compartment that might cause the printer head to be punctured.
