    I figured you already had some type of adapter already. Either the one you linked, or the DC connection from the printer. If that’s the case, then it’s ridiculously easy to do a DC to DC adapter. If you do not have a DC supply and just need a 24v power supply, splurge on something like this.

      I just have my laptop one which I don;'t want to splice because well I use it for my laptop too lol

      Would I be better off with that type of power supply?

        Honestly you’d probably be fine with your original idea. But, that means you can’t charge your laptop while printing and, the 24v power supply I linked to is cheaper than your original idea.
